Vikings sign Jermar Jefferson, waive Jordan Mims

The Vikings signed RB Jermar Jefferson and waived RB Jordan Mims, according to Adam Schefter.

What this means for the Vikings backfield

Jefferson is added to the roster while Mims comes off. Research notes show some conflict around the timing and direction of these transactions, so treat the specifics as attributed to Schefter's post rather than independently confirmed.

Neither player is a fantasy asset worth roster space in standard or PPR formats. Monitor the Vikings depth chart if a more prominent back suffers an injury, but for now this move has no meaningful impact on your lineup decisions.
