I’d love to tell Minnesota Vikings fans that things are cool within the offensive trenches, but they’re not.

Vikings center Pat Efflien, left guard Nick Easton and right guard Mike Remmers are all missing time at training camp with various injuries. More than likely, Minnesota will have to use some of their backup offensive linemen at some point in the 2018 season.

So who exactly is included in the Vikings’ understudy group of offensive linemen this year?

Aviante Collins – OT

  • 25-years-old
  • 6-foot-4, 292 pounds
  • College: TCU

Collins ran the third-fastest offensive lineman 40-yard dash time and bench-pressed 225 pounds 35 times at the 2017 scouting combine, but still went undrafted.
