2 years agoThe Minnesota Vikings acquired quarterback Nick Mullens from the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday in exchange for a conditional seventh-round draft pick in 2024, according to sources. Mullens will now be competing with Sean Mannion and Kellen Mond for the backup job behind starter Kirk Cousins. With Mullens now out of the way in Las Vegas, Jarrett Stidham should be Derek Carr's unquestioned backup in 2022. Mullens, who originally went undrafted out of Southern Mississippi, spent his first three seasons in the NFL with the San Francisco 49ers before joining the Cleveland Browns in 2021. In 20 career games (17 starts), the 27-year-old signal-caller has completed 64.6 percent of his 630 attempts for 4,861 yards, 26 touchdowns and 22 interceptions.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
