The Vikings on Tuesday announced the re-signing of tight end Nick Muse, who was set to become an exclusive rights free agent next week.

Muse originally joined the Vikings as a seventh-round pick (227th overall) in the 2022 NFL Draft.

He has appeared in 12 games for Minnesota, including 10 in his rookie season when he logged 108 special teams snaps.

In 2023, Muse made the 53-man roster after a strong training camp and preseason in which he caught seven passes of 72 yards and one of Minnesota's two passing touchdowns. He was inactive for the first 15 games of the season, however, before playing 13 special teams snaps against Green Bay in Week 17.

The South Carolina product played two offensive snaps and 16 on special teams at Detroit in the regular-season finale.

Muse recorded his first career catch for a gain of 22 against the Lions.
