7 free-agent tight ends the Vikings could sign in 2022
By Clay Vasquez
Gerald Everett
2021 Team: Seattle Seahawks
Gerald Everett is coming off his best year, logging his most receptions, yards, and touchdowns in a season over his five-year NFL career. Everett isn’t incredibly flashy, but he’s a productive and talented player that should get some interest this offseason.
With the future of Russell Wilson uncertain in Seattle, Everett may choose to jump ship and search for a new team in 2022, and he’ll find a familiar face in Minnesota.
New Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell worked with Everett in Los Angeles during the 2020 season when the tight end had a productive year, even as the Rams’ No. 2 tight end.
Knowing what O’Connell brings to the table could factor into what Everett does this offseason, and he would certainly be a welcomed addition to the Vikings team.
