As the Minnesota Vikings prepare for training camp, they will have a couple of new veteran faces in linebacker Jamal Adams, whose signing was reported on Monday, and running back Jordan Mims.
Mims is a former undrafted free agent looking to make the Vikings his next team in a young NFL career.
He joins a group that figures to be heavily involved in 2026.
Vikings Announce Jordan Mims Signing
Mims joins the Vikings after a brief offseason stint with the San Francisco 49ers, but he has also spent time with the Buffalo Bills, New Orleans Saints, and Tennessee Titans.
âMims most recently spent the 2025 season on the Titans practice squad. He signed with the 49ers in May but was released June 10. He worked out with the Vikings thereafter as the team was winding down its offseason program,â Vikings.comâs Lindsey Young wrote on July 28.
âOriginally signed as an undrafted free agent by Buffalo in 2023, Mims was released during the Bills final roster cuts that year. He spent the 2024 and 2025 campaigns with New Orleans, both on practice squad and the active roster. Mims made his NFL debut for the Saints in October 2024; he played just two games that season but in 2024 appeared in 11 games. He recorded 20 carries for 70 rushing yards, as well as 12 catches for 71 receiving yards.â
Now, he will look to stick in Minnesota.
Mims joins a Vikings backfield that features Pro Bowler Aaron Jones and former 49er Jordan Mason.
