Vikings Trade Rouse for Draft Pick | NFL News

The leak about a waiver essentially signaled his availability, prompting New England to act fast. While not flashy, the deal boosts Minnesota’s draft capital and helps clear roster space, while giving the Patriots depth around rookie QB Drake Maye. It’s a quiet win for both sides — and a sign the Vikings are building around homegrown talent on the line.
