The Minnesota Vikings were without backup QB Nick Mullens for Week 5 against the Kansas City Chiefs, who missed the game with a back injury.
As a result, the Vikings needed an emergency QB3 for the game, so they signed former Gophers QB Tanner Morgan, who spent his collegiate years at Minnesota.
However, as of Tuesday afternoon, it appears that the hometown QB’s time with the Vikings has come to an end as Minnesota waived him.
