The Minnesota Vikings have claimed running back Ameer Abdullah off waivers from the Detroit Lions.
The Vikings also waived rookie running back Roc Thomas. Abdullah was drafted by the Lions out of Nebraska in the second round in 2015, but they weren’t using him much this year.
Former South Dakota State running back Zach Zenner returns to Detroit after being waived nearly two months ago by the Lions on Sept. 12.
Zenner returns to Detroit after spending the offseason and preseason with the club before spending Week 1 on the Reserve/Injured list.
