Why Chad Beebe will make the Minnesota Vikings’ 53-man roster

Without a doubt, there is some serious speculation in regard to wide-receiver positions four and five on the Minnesota Vikings. With wideouts Adam Thielen and Stefon Diggs cemented at one and two, and Laquon Treadwell unofficially assumed as the number three, which other receivers deserve the last two spots?

Since head coach Mike Zimmer views the preseason games with great priority in analyzing these position battles, just who has been making hay?

For one, it is Chad Beebe, the undrafted rookie from Northern Illinois University.

Beebe has caught nine balls for 95 yards and 2 touchdowns in the 2018 preseason, the last touchdown being a slingshot from running Viking quarterback Kyle Sloter to win the game against Seattle.
