Vikings sign LB Kyle Van Noy to active roster, place TE Josh Oliver on IR

The Minnesota Vikings made several adjustments to their roster, elevating linebacker Kyle Van Noy and quarterback Max Brosmer from the practice squad to the active 53-man roster. Meanwhile, tight end Josh Oliver was placed on injured reserve following a torn biceps sustained while blocking during a field-goal attempt, and wide receiver Jeshaun Jones returned to the active squad after serving a three-game suspension.

In corresponding roster moves, punter Johnny Hekker had his contract terminated after temporarily filling in for injured rookie Brett Thorson, and outside linebacker Kenny Dyson, Jr. joined the practice squad alongside the releases of running backs Jerome Ford and Jaret Patterson and defensive lineman Jonathan Harris.
