    Dan Bailey Minnesota Vikings T-Shirt , waive Stacy Coley On Tuesday afternoon, the Minnesota Vikings made official one of the moves that we first mentioned to you on Monday, and the corresponding move comes as a bit of a surprise.Minnesota has officially added kicker Dan Bailey to the roster. Bailey, who currently stands as the second-most accurate kicker in NFL history, was the kicker for the Dallas Cowboys from 2011 to 2017, but was released during the final cutdowns this preseason because Minnesota Vikings Hats , well, Jerry Jones wanted to get his kicker on the cheap. He’s apparently passed his physical and joined the Vikings on a one-year deal.To make room for Bailey, since the team cut Daniel Carlson yesterday, the Vikings waived second-year wide receiver Stacy Coley. Coley, a seventh-round pick of the Vikings in the 2017 NFL Draft, had been active for both of the Vikings’ games this season as the team’s #4 receiver. With the team adding receiver Aldrick Robinson yesterday Minnesota Vikings Hoodie , they still have five receivers on the main roster.The Coley move is a bit of a surprise. He was injured for much of Training Camp, and beat out quite a few other solid players to make the 53-man roster. I wouldn’t be surprised if the team brought him back to the practice squad. I also wouldn’t be surprised if another NFL team in need of receiver help picked him up. We’ll have to see how it shakes out.The Vikings will have to make one more roster move at some point today or tomorrow when the signing of defensive tackle Tom Johnson (which we mentioned earlier today as well) becomes official. It’s going to be interesting to see where the Vikings make room for Sebastian Thunderbucket, but when the news comes down we will have it for you. On Wednesday, the Minnesota Vikings resumed practicing in preparation for their game on Sunday in Philadelphia. A couple of pretty significant players found themselves on the sideline during Wednesday’s festivities.Running back Dalvin Cook and running back Trae Waynes sat out of Wednesday’s practice. Cook is still nursing the hamstring injury that he suffered in Week 2 and left him on a “pitch count” against the Rams last Thursday, while Waynes is apparently dealing with the effects of a concussion suffered during that loss in Los Angeles.Waynes will have to pass the concussion protocol in order to get back onto the field by Sunday, but it still remains to be seen whether or not Cook will be able to take the field against what is Cheap Customized Minnesota Vikings Jerseys , right now, the best run defense in the NFL. The Vikings’ rush offense is currently the NFL’s worst, so any spark that Cook could potentially provide would be welcomed.Several Vikings were limited participants in Wednesday’s practice, including defensive tackle Linval Joseph (shoulder), defensive end Tashawn Bower (ankle), and punt returner Marcus Sherels (ribs). Sherels has missed the last two games for the Vikings http://www.authenticsminnesotavikings.com/cheap-mike-remmers-jersey ;, with rookie Mike Hughes handling punt returns in his absence.We will be keeping an eye on all of the Vikings’ injuries, especially those to Waynes and Cook, leading up to the final injury reports being released on Friday. However, it hasn’t gotten off to a good start for either of those two players this week.
