What happened: Minnesota had placed Kejon Owens on the non-football illness list July 27. The roster exchange shifts one spot from the backfield to the secondary during preseason.
Why it matters: The change gives Minnesota another cornerback for camp evaluations while reducing its running back depth. Owens now enters the NFL waiver process.
By the numbers: Owens went from the illness list to waivers in six days.
What to watch: Owens' waiver status and Minnesota's allocation of cornerback reps are next to watch.
