to the Panthers' active roster, the Vikings have found his replacement. The team announced on Wednesday that outside linebacker Quincy Roche has been added to the p-squad.

He spent the offseason this year with the Steelers. Now he joins the Vikings, where he'll serve for the time being as the No. 6 OLB behind Danielle Hunter, D.J. Wonnum, Pat Jones II, Andre Carter II, and Benton Whitley. Marcus Davenport is on injured reserve for at least three more games.
