Price sat out the entire 2018 campaign after sustaining a knee injury during the preseason. Since going undrafted out of Michigan State in 2017, the tight end has yet to make his NFL debut.

Price (knee) cleared waivers Tuesday and was placed on injured reserve, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Rotowire
The Vikings released Price (knee) with a waived/injured designation Monday, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Vikings' Josiah Price: Out for season
Rotowire
Price (knee) will be out for the remainder of the season, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
Price was carted off from Vikings practice with a right knee injury Wednesday. Though the specifics are unclear, he'll likely move to IR in the near future, where he'll spend the remainder of the 2018 campaign. A depth tight end, Price's injury shouldn't have much impact on the Vikings offense, though there will be more reps to go around for Tyler Hoppes and Blake Bell (leg).

Rotowire
Price (knee) will not return Thursday, Matt Vensel of the Star Tribune reports.
Price suffered the injury in the fourth quarter of Thursday's game, but the fact that the Vikings immediately ruled him out for the remainder of the game is a potentially ominous sign. Minnesota has a deep enough secondary to absorb Price's loss if he has to miss significant time.
