When the Cleveland Browns released the veteran Juan Thornhill on Monday, the Vikings fans noticed. NFL network'S Mike Garafolo tweeted: “The Browns publish the veterans of Juan Thornhill, say sources. The team and the camp of Thornhill spoke in the last few days and the decision has been made to separate a few weeks in front of the Free Agency to find his next home. Thornhill had a year with $ 7 million. “

Thornhill will hit the open market and can sign anywhere in the NFL. He doesn't have to wait until March 10, the beginning of the “legal manipulations of the Free Agency”.

Without Thornhill, Minnesota would have left the Vikings in Josh Metellus, Jay Ward and Theo Jackson on hand without Thornhill. Metellus and Ward are under contract for 2025, and Jackson is expected to sign again independently of Smith or Bynums.

Other collateral such as Jevon Holland and Talanoa Hufanga General Manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah's attention could be paid to the Free Agency if Minnesota is not interested in Thornhill.

In Smith's possible retirement, some new hints from Darren Wolfson from KStP show 14 for the year 14 for the year 14. “Smith can still play, and I don't think the Vikings have to break the bank to bring it back. You can find out the money. I understand it. He has had to take salary cuts in recent years. For me there is interested in playing a reasonable number. I just think that it makes all possible sense, ”said Wolfson North Airwaves at the end of last week.

“I also think there is no disadvantage to bring Harrison Smith back.”
