Tuesday was the NFL’s deadline to reduce rosters to 75 players, so the Minnesota Vikings cut four players to trim their roster. The released included kicker Taylor Mehlhaff, cornerback Derrick Roberson, running back Antone Smith and guard Nick Urban.
That was not the end of trimming. By Saturday, teams must be down to the regular-season limit of 53 players. And for the Vikings, the most urgent to do is to decide which backup quarterbacks to keep, behind Brett Favre, who put on his No. 4 vikings jersey not long ago and became the team’s starting quarterback.
The Vikings won over the Houston Texans by 17-10 in Tuesday night’s preseason game. They will play their last preseason game on Friday against the Dallas Cowboys at home.
