The Vikings traded Weatherly, along with a 2023 seventh-round pick, to the Broncos on Saturday in exchange for a 2022 seventh-round pick, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Weatherly logged just nine tackles through the Vikings' first six games of the season. However, the Broncos' front seven was embarrassed by the Browns during their Week 7 matchup, so the 27-year-old edge rusher will likely have an opportunity to carve out a role if he can impress with his new team. Denver placed Micah Kiser (groin) on injured reserve to make room for Weatherly.
