Stevenson (shoulder) was waived with an injury settlement from the Vikings' injured reserve Thursday.
Stevenson was set to miss the entirety of his 2022 rookie campaign after going unclaimed off waivers and landing on Minnesota's IR last Wednesday. The 24-year-old will now be free to negotiate a contract elsewhere heading into the regular season, provided he recovers from his current AC joint injury.

Tyarise Stevenson: Bound for waivers
Rotowire
Minnesota waived Stevenson (undisclosed) with an injury designation Tuesday.
Stevenson was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Vikings back in April, and he'll return to Minnesota's IR list provided he's not claimed by another team during the current waiver period. It's not clear what type of injury he's dealing with, but his departure should create more opportunities at nose tackle for T.J. Smith and T.Y. McGill.
