Vikings' Myles Gaskin: Signed off practice squad
The Vikings signed Gaskin to the 53-man roster from the practice squad Wednesday, Craig Peters of the team's official site reports.
Gaskin had been elevated from the practice squad for Minnesota's first two regular-season games, and the placement of tight end Nick Muse (hand) on IR now opens a spot for him on the active roster. He'll continue handling a depth role behind Aaron Jones and Ty Chandler, while also contributing in the return game Sunday versus the Texans.

Myles Gaskin: Reverts to practice squad
Gaskin reverted to the Vikings' practice squad Monday.
Gaskin played four special teams snaps during Sunday's victory over the 49ers but failed to record any stats. As Aaron Jones and Ty Chandler are the only two half backs on the active roster, Gaskins could be elevated again versus the Texans next week.

Vikings' Myles Gaskin: Elevated for Week 2
The Vikings elevated Gaskin from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Gaskin will be elevated to the active roster for a second straight week, and he will serve as the No. 3 running back behind Aaron Jones and Ty Chandler for Sunday's game against the 49ers. Gaskin played seven snaps (two on offense, five on special teams) and rushed for minus-three yards on one carry in the Vikings' Week 1 win over the Giants.

Myles Gaskin: Reverts to practice squad
Gaskin reverted to the Vikings' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Gaskin played seven snaps Sunday (two on offense, five on special teams), and he lost three yards on his lone carry. Gaskin served as the No. 3 running back behind Aaron Jones and Ty Chandler, and he would likely reprise that role should he be elevated for Week 2 against the 49ers.

Vikings' Myles Gaskin: Just one carry in season opener
Gaskin lost three yards on one carry on his lone snap on offense in Sunday's win over the Giants.
Gaskin is the No. 3 running back but won't get much usage as long as Aaron Jones and Ty Chandler are healthy. Gaskin did get five snaps on special teams, mostly on kickoffs, so he could be a factor at some point as a returner.

Vikings' Myles Gaskin: Pushed up to active roster
Gaskin was elevated to the Vikings' active roster Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
This had been widely assumed after Gaskin failed to make the initial 53-man roster, leaving the Vikings with just two active running backs ahead of Week 1. At minimum, the 2019 draft pick figures to be a potential return specialist, and he could see some playing in the passing game spelling both Aaron Jones and Ty Chandler.

Myles Gaskin: Likely to be elevated before Week 1
Gaskin will likely be elevated to the game day roster from the practice squad before Week 1 to serve as Minnesota's kick returner, Will Ragatz of Sports Illustrated reports.
The Vikings released Gaskin on Tuesday, leaving only Aaron Jones and Ty Chandler in the backfield on the initial 53-man roster, but later signed him to the practice squad. It sounds like Gaskin will serve as the No. 3 RB but the kick return job could be in flux as the Vikings figure out the position with the new kick return rules. Both the No. 3 RB role and kickoff return job are open after the Vikings surprisingly released Kene Nwangwu.

The Vikings released Gaskin on Tuesday, leaving only Aaron Jones and Ty Chandler in the backfield on the initial 53-man roster. Minnesota may look at external additions at running back but will at least keep Gaskin around for insurance on the practice squad.

Vikings' Myles Gaskin: Released by Minnesota
Gaskin was released by Minnesota, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Gaskin faced an uphill battle to win a roster spot as he was fourth on the depth chart at running back behind Aaron Jones, Ty Chandler and Kene Nwangwu. He was solid in the preseason (13 carries for 61 yards in Saturday's finale), so he could find work as a reserve elsewhere in the league or land on Minnesota's practice squad.

Vikings' Myles Gaskin: Big workload Saturday
Gaskin carried the ball 13 times for 61 yards in Saturday's 26-3 preseason win over the Eagles. He also caught two of three targets for six yards.
The veteran running back got the start in the Vikings' exhibition finale, which doesn't bode well for his chances of making the 53-man roster, but he had another productive preseason performance. Gaskin might have been auditioning for other teams due to Aaron Jones, Ty Chandler and Kene Nwangwu all being set at the top of the depth chart, but if he does wind up back on Minnesota's practice squad, he seems capable of giving the Vikings reliable snaps if called upon.

Vikings' Myles Gaskin: Has 45 yards rushing in preseason win
Gaskin had nine carries for 45 yards and two receptions for 10 yards in Saturday's preseason win over Cleveland.
Gaskin showed he can be a steady veteran as a reserve running back, but he may face an uphill battle to win a roster spot. The Vikings are likely to keep just three running backs with Kene Nwangwu currently ahead of Gaskin on the depth chart.

Vikings' Myles Gaskin: Staying in Minnesota
The Vikings signed Gaskin to a reserve/future contract Tuesday.
Gaskin spent the majority of the year on Minnesota's practice squad, appearing in three games and failing to record a single stat in just 10 snaps. He'll look to compete for a depth role this offseason in a backfield that's seemingly open for the time being.
