Vikings Free Agency: After Two Days, Minnesota Waives Kevin Murphy

Let's hope he didn't unpack his bags.

Two days after signing rookie offensive tackle Kevin Murphy, the Minnesota Vikings have waived him, according to NFL reporter Adam Caplan:

The Vikes picked up Murphy from the San Francisco 49ers on Tuesday, one day after he was waived.

Murphy was ranked as the No. 27 offensive tackle by NFLDraftScout.com.

It's been a busy week for the Vikings. They released wide receiver Kris Adams and signed Tyler Holmes, and then released Arkansas offensive tackle Jose Valdez in order to make room for Murphy. Minnesota also signed defensive end Nick Reed, who was first drafted in 2009, and released defensive end Kevin Cyrille.
