The Vikings signed former Giants defensive tackle Linval Joseph on Tuesday, about an hour and a half into the official opening of free agency (4pm EST). Per ESPN, the contract is a 5-year deal worth $31.5 million.
Joseph (or LJ as we’ll affectionately call him from now on) will be going into his 5th NFL season after spending his first four with the Giants as a 2nd Round pick (46th overall) in the 2010 Draft out of East Carolina.
