Mon Mar 17 13:50:00 UTC 2025: ## Vikings to Host Free Agent Cornerback Jeff Okudah
**MINNEAPOLIS, MN –** The Minnesota Vikings announced they will host former first-round pick Jeff Okudah for a visit on Monday. Okudah, a 26-year-old cornerback, is currently a free agent. Drafted third overall by the Detroit Lions in 2020, Okudah’s career has taken him through Detroit, Atlanta, and Houston. His rookie contract with the Lions, a four-year deal worth $33.5 million, included a fifth-year option that was declined. He was subsequently traded to the Atlanta Falcons before signing a one-year contract with the Houston Texans in 2024. In six games with the Texans last season, Okudah recorded nine tackles and one pass deflection. The Vikings’ interest in Okudah signals their potential intention to bolster their cornerback depth chart. Further details regarding the visit and Okudah’s potential signing with the Vikings are expected soon.
