(Photo by Grant Halverson/Getty Images) | Getty Images The 2026 NFL Draft is officially in the books, and now it’s time for one of the events that has become almost as important in recent years.Yes, the post-Draft race to sign the players who were not among those who heard their names called over the last three days is officially on, and we’re here to cover all of it for you.We’re going to use this post to bring you all of the rumors we see from reputable sources on line, whether they’re reporters, agents, or (in some cases) even the players themselves about who is making their way to Minnesota as an undrafted free agent. We’ve seen a lot of undrafted free agents make significant impacts for our favorite team over the years, and the odds are pretty good that at least a few of the players we see signed over the course of the next 24 hours or so will make an impact not just this season, but for the long-term as well.Now, the way this has gone the past couple of years is that we’ve run this thing for an hour or an hour and a half or so, and then the Vikings come out and just dump a big ol’ list of all the undrafted free agents they’ve signed into our laps all at one time.
If that happens, we’ll link to the definitive list from the team in a separate post so that you know for sure who all of the Vikings’ UDFAs are.In the meantime, however, join us as we track all of the rumored undrafted free agent signings for the Minnesota Vikings now that the 2026 NFL Draft is in the rear view mirror.UPDATE: Georgia WR Dillon Bell is signing with the Vikings as a UDFA, per Jordan Schultz.Sources: Georgia WR Dillon Bell is signing with the #Vikings. pic.twitter.com/alihCp77vO— Jordan Schultz (@Schultz_Report) April 25, 2026UPDATE: Per Ryan Fowler, the Vikings are signing Georgia punter Brett Thorson, who won the Ray Guy Award as the best punter in college football last season.Source: Vikings are signing Georgia P Brett Thorson as a UDFA— Ryan Fowler (@_RyanFowler_) April 25, 2026UPDATE: Aaron Wilson reports that the Vikings are signing Temple linebacker edge Cam’Ron Stewart to a UDFA deal.#Vikings sign Temple's Cam Stewart to undrafted deal, per source— Aaron Wilson (@AaronWilson_NFL) April 25, 2026UPDATE: Texas A&M linebacker Scooby Williams is heading to Minnesota as an undrafted free agent, per Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports.Source: The #Vikings are signing former Texas A&M linebacker Scooby Williams.Williams, who played at Florida before A&M, tallied 131 career college tackles. pic.twitter.com/rOT7QBfNMn— Matt Zenitz (@mzenitz) April 25, 2026UPDATE: Zenitz is also reporting that the Vikings have agreed to a UDFA deal with Clemson offensive tackle Tristan Leigh.Source: The #Vikings are signing former Clemson offensive tackle Tristan Leigh.Leigh, a former five-star recruit, was Clemson’s starting left tackle the last three seasons.
