The Minnesota Vikings announced Wednesday that they’ve signed former Bears DT Will Sutton to a contract and placed DT Toby Johnson on waivers.
Sutton, 25, was taken in the third round of the 2014 NFL draft by the Bears. He was in the final year of his four-year, $2,851,068 contract and set to make a base salary of $705,000 for the 2017 season when the Bears recently cut him loose last week.
In 2016, Sutton appeared in eight games and recorded 15 tackles and no sacks for the Bears.
