CALGARY — Former CFL linebacker Jacob Roberts has reached a multi-year agreement with the NFL’s Minnesota Vikings.
According to a CFL source, the deal covers three years. The source spoke on the condition of anonymity as the Vikings haven’t announced the move.
The six-foot-one, 233-pound Roberts had earlier worked out with the Vikings following the 2025 CFL season.
Roberts, 24, of Charlotte, N.C., registered a team-high 93 tackles last season with the Calgary Stampeders. He also recorded nine special-teams tackles, four sacks, and one forced fumble in 18 regular-season contests.
