The Minnesota Vikings are going into the 2024 season looking a lot different than many would have expected just six months ago. Kirk Cousins choosing to sign with the Atlanta Falcons set forward a motion of events in Minneapolis that changed the course of the future of the franchise.
Now there has been one more change at the quarterback position just days prior to the start of the season.
The Minnesota Vikings Make One Last Change At Quarterback
According to ESPN’s Kevin Seifert, Minnesota has released QB Jaren Hall and signed Brett Rypien.
After spending the 2024 offseason with the Bears, Rypien joins the Vikings for his sixth NFL season. His previous teams include the Broncos (2019-22), Rams (2023), Seahawks (2023), and Jets (2023).
After a successful college football career with the Boise State Broncos, the former Boise State quarterback joined the NFL as an undrafted free agent with Denver. In his NFL career, he has played in 10 games and started four of them.
According to the Vikings official website:
A native of Spokane, Washington, Rypien started 49 of the 50 games he played as a quarterback at Boise State, finishing his career as the Mountain West’s all-time leader in passing yards (13,581), completions (1,036) and 300-yard passing games (21).
Hall joined the Vikings as a fifth-round pick in 2023. He made two starts for Minnesota as a rookie, opening at Atlanta but leaving the game early after suffering a concussion. Hall also started against Green Bay in Week 17.
