DeWayne McBride: Back on Vikings' practice squad
McBride signed with Minnesota's practice squad Wednesday, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports.
The 2023 seventh-round pick spent all of 2023 on the Vikings' practice squad and did not see any NFL action. McBride entered training camp competing for a depth spot in the backfield, but Minnesota opted to keep just two running backs -- Aaron Jones and Ty Chandler -- on the 53-man roster. McBride could be promoted to the active roster should Jones or Chandler miss time, but it's not guaranteed due to the Vikings also signing Myles Gaskin to the taxi squad.

DeWayne McBride: Loses roster spot
McBride was waived by the Vikings on Monday, Craig Peters of the team's official site reports.
McBride spent last season on Minnesota's practice squad after failing to make the Vikings' initial 53-man roster, and he'd then signed a reserve/future contract with the team in January. The UAB product will now have to seek out an NFL opportunity elsewhere.

Vikings' DeWayne McBride: Suits up for preseason finale
McBride carried the ball 11 times for 34 yards and caught two of three targets for 27 yards in Saturday's 26-3 preseason win over the Eagles.
The 2023 seventh-round pick missed some practice time earlier this week with a minor knee issue, but McBride was healthy for the Vikings' preseason finale and saw action as the second running back into the game after Myles Gaskin. McBride didn't come off the practice squad as a rookie, and with Aaron Jones, Ty Chandler and Kene Nwangwu all locked into roster spots, the UAB product may not get a chance to make his NFL regular-season debut in 2024 either.

Vikings' DeWayne McBride: Limited to sideline work
McBride (knee) was limited to individual work on the sidelines during Thursday's practice session, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

The 2023 seventh-round pick played 27 snaps (15 on offense, 12 on special teams) in the Vikings' second preseason game against the Browns, finishing the contest with 17 rushing yards on six carries. McBride is competing against Kene Nwangwu and Myles Gaskin for a depth running back role behind Aaron Jones and Ty Chandler.

Vikings' DeWayne McBride: Comes off NFI list
McBride (undisclosed) was activated off the Vikings' active/non-football injury list Wednesday, Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
McBride's injury must have not been serious, as the 23-year-old running back spent just two days on Minnesota's active/non-football injury list before activation. Now that the UAB product has returned to form, he's expected to compete with Myles Gaskin and Kene Nwangwu for a depth role in the Vikings' backfield.

Vikings' DeWayne McBride: Heads to NFI list
The Vikings placed McBride (undisclosed) on their active/non-football injury list Monday.
The nature and severity of McBride's injury is currently unknown, but he'll now begin Minnesota's training camp on the NFI list. McBride, a 2023 seventh-round pick out of UAB, is still eligible to practice or play at any point in the preseason, but this injury could jeopardize the 23-year-old's chances at making the Vikings' 53-man roster.
