And this is the all-time list, minus the Viks trying to make the NFL this year like Schantz, Jones, etc. There have been a number of Vikings who have made the practice squads in the NFL, but this doesn't count as making the "NFL", an example would be Daren Heerspink who made the Dolphins practice squad, but isn't listed on the below list. Heerspink is,in fact, playing in the CFL with the B.C. Lions, along with another Portland State alumni, Bobby Singh.

Seeing as the NFL teams had to cut down to 75 today, I thought I'd see how our guys at the next level were doing...

1. Shaun Bodiford Wide Receiver New York Giants
**Still with the Giants
2. Tony Curtis Tight End Kansas City Chiefs
**Cut by the Chiefs
3. Adam Hayward Linebacker Tampa Bay Buccaneers
**Still with the Bucs
4. Daren Heerspink Offensive Tackle St. Louis Rams
**Waived by the Rams. Up in Canada.
5. Reggie Jones Cornerback New Orleans Saints
**Still with the Saints
6. Andy Schantz Linebacker Pittsburgh Steelers
**Still with the Steelers
7. Jordan Senn Linebacker Indianapolis Colts
**Still with the Colts
8. Olaniyi Sobomehin Fullback New Orleans Saints
**Still with the Saints
9. Danny Urrego Place kicker Buffalo Bills
**Not on the Bills' roster
 
Tony Curtis is now with the Philadelphia Eagles.
