6 Vikings in Line for Increased Roles in 2015

It’s fair to say that the Minnesota Vikings were not active early on in free agency. While that’s disappointing from the perspective of an eager fan who is starved for updates, it’s great news for current Vikings who are queued up to have big roles in the upcoming season.


While the draft and the next set of free-agency signings will certainly change things for many of the personnel, the roster as it stands now contains a lot of opportunity and turnover for some of the role players.


We’ll take a look at which characters on the roster are currently set to take on bigger roles for the Vikings this year, which isn’t a judgment of how good they are—merely where the roster is set.


Starters who lost snaps to in-season injury, like Brandon Fusco or Sharrif Floyd, don’t qualify, and neither do players who weren’t on the roster in 2014—after all, an increase implies some original level of involvement, even if it’s only on special teams. That means neither Shaun Hill nor Mike Wallace qualifies.
