MINNEAPOLIS, MN — The Minnesota Vikings have a new quarterback on their staff.
And he’s a familiar face to NDSU Bison football fans.
Carson Wentz, a star for the Bison, was signed on Sunday, according to the Vikings. The Vikings traded backup quarterback Sam Howell to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for a fifth round pick in next year’s draft.
Wentz had a workout with the Vikings this weekend. His addition comes on the heels of news that the Vikings are looking into a possible trade deal to bring Adam Thielen back to Minnesota.
