What happened: Minnesota moved Brosmer to waivers after keeping four quarterbacks on its initial 53-man roster. The Vikings' quarterback room now includes Kyler Murray and Carson Wentz.

Why it matters: The move reduces Minnesota's quarterback depth as the 2026 season approaches. Brosmer must clear waivers before Minnesota could retain him on its practice squad.

By the numbers: Brosmer started two games and appeared in seven last season.

What to watch: Waiver claims will determine Brosmer's next destination. Minnesota can pursue a practice-squad return if he clears.
