The Vikings placed Davis (undisclosed) on the active/non-football injury list Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

An undrafted rookie out of Texas A&M, Davis would already be facing an uphill battle for a roster spot even if he were to log a full training camp. On the other hand, he was pursued by multiple teams before reaching a deal with Minnesota that includes $100,000 guaranteed, so the Vikings may have increased incentive to be patient in his development.
