The Vikings elevated Fields to the 53-man roster from the practice squad Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

With the Vikings set to be without both Mike Hughes (neck) and Cameron Dantzler (ribs), they elected to stay in-house with the promotion of Fields. The 23-year-old suited up in one game for the Vikings last season, seeing just eight total snaps, so he'll likely be in line for a similar role for Week 3.
