The Minnesota Vikings have fortified their cornerback room ahead of the NFL draft. The team announced on their Twitter account that they have signed former New England Patriots CB Joejuan Williams.
A second-round pick of the Patriots out of Vanderbilt in 2019, Williams has extensive experience in the defense that the Vikings will be running under Brian Flores this season. In his career, Williams has played in 36 games. He has 44 tackles and eight passes defended in his career.
He did miss the entire 2022 season due to a shoulder injury suffered during training camp. The deal is likely to be close to the minimum due to having only started one game in his career and coming off of an injury.
