Za'Darius Smith Visits With Vikings
3 years agoFormer Green Bay Packers outside linebacker Za'Darius Smith visited with the Minnesota Vikings on Monday, according to sources. Smith's original deal with the Baltimore Ravens fell apart, so he's back on the open market and could end up staying in the NFC North. The 29-year-old pass-rusher originally agreed to a four-year, $35 million deal with Baltimore before he backed out. Smith would give the Vikings a capable pass-rusher next to Danielle Hunter and Everson Griffen in Minnesota. He was a Pro Bowler in both 2019 and 2020 for the Packers with a combined 26 sacks before he played in just one game due to injury last season. If fully healthy, Smith could be a game-changer for a Vikings D that has really struggled in recent seasons.
