Former Vikings WR signs with Tennessee Titans in free agency
A former Minnesota Vikings wide receiver signed a one-year deal with the Tennessee Titans this week.
There's something to be said about players in the NFL who can stick around, even without posting major numbers. For wide receivers, it's especially rare, as usually they are judged on production alone, and if you aren't posting numbers, you find yourself on practice squads or on special teams duties. A former Minnesota Vikings player is carving out a role across multiple offenses after being drafted in the fifth round in 2020.
Former Vikings and Washington Commanders wide receiver KJ Osborn has signed a one-year deal, per ESPN's Adam Schefter . Osborn, drafted 176th overall, was a quality role player for the Vikings, posting 158 receptions for 1,845 yards and 15 touchdowns in 50 total appearances for Minnesota. After a rough year with the New England Patriots in 2024, he would bounce around practice squads last season before landing a one-year deal with Tennessee this offseason.
Hopefully, he can rebound and find his form in 2026. This article originally appeared on Vikings Wire: Former Vikings WR KJ Osborn signs with the Tennessee Titans
