Tashawn Bower has agreed to depart from the New England Patriots’ practice squad for a place on the Minnesota Vikings’ 53-man roster, NFL Media’s Tom Pelissero reported Wednesday.
It marks a reunion for the outside linebacker.
Bower, 26, entered the league with Minnesota as an undrafted free agent in 2017. The 6-foot-5, 250-pound LSU product appeared in seven games to record seven tackles and his first career sack during his stay. He was waived from the non-football injury list after suffering a torn Achilles before joining New England’s practice squad midway through the 2019 season.
