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.

Howie: Will C.J. Ham retire after this season?

Ham will show up somewhere that needs someone dependable, respected, and comfortable doing the hard work without applause. Which, if we’re being honest, means he’ll still fit right in around here.

Howie: Hughes trade, DECC to host World Junior Championship exhibitions

This is a bet that Hughes ages cleanly, that his body cooperates, that the cap continues to rise, and that the surrounding cast can be managed without suffocation. It’s a bet that Minnesota can finally pull off the superstar contract that doesn’t end in regret.

Howie: The library isn’t the story. It never was.

This time, the leverage isn’t casino revenue. It’s downtown frustration — visible poverty, safety complaints, business dissatisfaction and the persistent sense that downtown Duluth has not lived up to decades of promises.
