The Minnesota Vikings signed John Wolford to the practice squad on Wednesday, one day after fellow quarterback Carson Wentz was ruled out for the season with a shoulder injury.
Wolford adds depth for the Vikings (3-4) behind returning starter J.J. McCarthy and rookie backup Max Brosmer going into Sunday’s NFC North road game against the Detroit Lions (5-2).
Wolford, 30, made four starts (2-2 record) for the Los Angeles Rams from 2020-22. Since then, he spent time on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Jacksonville Jaguars but did not appear in any games.
Undrafted in 2018 out of Wake Forest, Wolford has completed 58.7% of his passes for 626 yards with a touchdown and five interceptions in seven appearances, all for the Rams.
