Vikings sign QB Desmond Ridder

Pro Football Talk

Sep 16 · 5:41 PM EDT

The Vikings are making a move to fortify the quarterback position while J.J. McCarthy recovers from his ankle injury.

Per NFL Media, Minnesota is signing quarterback Desmond Ridder to their 53-man roster.

Related players: Carson Wentz, Max Brosmer

Fantasy Impact:

Ridder, 26, spent the preseason with the Bengals but had not found a team since he was let go at the end of August. The story goes on to say by signing Ridder to the 53-man roster, the Vikings will be able to have him suit up as the emergency third QB. We reported yesterday the team loves Brosmer, but the bigger question was could he be ready if Wentz under performs early on. The Ridder signing could mean he will eventually slide up and become the QB2.

ATL QB Desmond Ridder - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at Carolina Panthers

Desmond Ridder actually had himself a strong fantasy day last week against the Buccaneers, throwing for 347 yards and a touchdown while also rushing for 15 yards and a touchdown. That was more passing yards than he had in the previous two weeks combined. He'll look to improve on what was a very quiet day in Week 1 against the Panthers (15/18, 115 yards, 1 touchdown). Ridder is a fringe QB2 this week against a tough Panthers defense.
