Vikings tendered exclusive rights free agent EDGE Jalen Redmond.

04 March 2026

Redmond went undrafted in 2023 and failed to make the Panthers’ 53-man roster after training camp. He joined the Vikings after a successful stint on the UFL’s Arlington Renegades. Redmond didn’t play much in 2024 while bouncing between the team’s practice squad and active roster. The Vikings finally gave him a bigger chance in 2025 and he didn’t disappoint, racking up six sacks, two fumble recoveries, and one forced fumble while appearing in all 17 games. Redmond’s role will only grow in 2026.
