The Vikings plan to waive former Texas A&M quarterback Kellen Mond after just one season, NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported Tuesday morning.
Mond, a third-round pick in the 2021 draft, arrived in Minnesota as a player on the rise following a strong senior season with the Aggies and an impressive performance in the pre-draft process. However, the 23-year-old failed to live up to the expectations set out for him over the course of his brief time with the Vikings.
Mond’s chances at making the 2022 roster took a major hit last week when Minnesota struck a deal with Las Vegas for veteran backup Nick Mullens. He’ll now head to waivers with the possibility of returning to the Vikings practice squad later in the week.
