The Minnesota Vikings re-signed impending exclusive-rights free-agent defensive lineman Khyiris Tonga to an undisclosed deal. In addition, the team also re-signed offensive tackle Blake Brandel, who was also scheduled to be an exclusive-rights free agent next month. Tonga, a former seventh-round pick by the Chicago Bears in 2021, had 28 tackles (12 solo), half a sack and four passes defensed in 11 games (two starts) in his first year with the Vikings in 2022. Minnesota took Brandel in the sixth round in 2020, and he has played in 22 games (three starts) over the last two seasons for the Vikings.
