EAGAN, Minn. — The Vikings on Tuesday announced two trades — and multiple roster moves — to narrow the team to the NFL-maximum of 53 players.

Minnesota traded offensive lineman Jesse Davis to the Pittsburgh Steelers in exchange for a conditional seventh-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.

The Vikings also traded a 2023 sixth-round pick to the Houston Texans to acquire defensive lineman Ross Blacklock, who was a second-round pick in 2020, and a 2023 seventh-round selection.

Davis had joined the Vikings this offseason and was competing for Minnesota's right guard position. Rookie Ed Ingram came on strong in that competition.
