Vikings will waive CB Akayleb Evans

The Vikings are moving on from another 2022 draft pick.

Per NFL Media, Minnesota will be waiving cornerback Akayleb Evans.

A fourth-round pick (118th overall) in G.M. Kwesi Adofo-Mensah’s first year on the job, Evans started 15 games in 2023. This year, he has seven appearances but zero starts. He had been listed on the depth chart as a backup to Byron Murphy, Jr.

Evans will now pass through waivers. If unclaimed, he’ll become a free agent.
