The Minnesota Vikings made two additions to the QB room on the final day of the NFL draft, though they didn’t use a pick to acquire either of them.
Minnesota traded with the Seattle Seahawks for Sam Howell a day after that franchise added former Alabama QB Jalen Milroe in the third round. The Vikings then waited until after the draft was complete to sign Max Brosmer to a lucrative deal as an undrafted free agent.
“Former University of Minnesota QB Max Brosmer is staying home, signing with the #Vikings on a deal that includes $250,000 guaranteed, per source,” Tom Pelissero of NFL Network posted to X on Saturday, April 26. “So Kevin O’Connell gets two more young QBs in one day: Sam Howell in a trade, then Brosmer as an undrafted free agent.”
Brosmer completed 66.5% of his passes for 2,828 yards, 18 TDs and 6 INTs across 13 games for the Golden Gophers in 2024. He also scored 5 rushing touchdowns on the season.
