Field Yates of ESPN reports that the Vikings brought in four free agent running backs for workouts on Wednesday including Stevan Ridley, Troymaine Pope, Bobby Rainey and Josh Rounds.
Minnesota just lost dynamic rookie RB Dalvin Cook for the season, so it makes sense that they would be taking a look at some available running back options.
Ridley, 28, is a former third-round pick of the Patriots back in 2011. He played out his rookie contract before signing a one-year, $1.
