Former Vikings DT Jaleel Johnson signs with Texans

Johnson was a 2017 fourth-round pick out of Iowa.

After four seasons with the Vikings, defensive tackle Jaleel Johnson will takes his talents to the Houston Texans.

Johnson was a 2017 fourth-round pick out of Iowa. His time in Minnesota was fine. He started 16 games last season, but it was more out of desperation with Michael Pierce opting out of the season rather than because Johnson deserved the gig.

We’ll see what type of role Johnson has with the Texans moving forward.
