Back to EpisodesVikings Release Javon Hargrave, Free Agent Now
Description
The Minnesota Vikings released defensive lineman Javon Hargrave, saving nearly eleven million dollars against the salary cap. Despite his two-year, thirty million dollar deal, Hargrave underperformed in his first season. With the Vikings facing tight cap constraints, they had to make tough roster decisions. Hargrave, a six-foot-two, three hundred seven-pound tackle, managed fifty-two tackles, three point five sacks, one forced fumble, and one recovery in sixteen games. Previously, Hargrave played for the Pittsburgh Steelers and Philadelphia Eagles, where he achieved career-high eleven sacks in twenty twenty-two. However, a partial right triceps tear in twenty twenty-four led to his release from the San Francisco Forty-Niners. Now a free agent, Hargrave may seek a reunion in Pittsburgh, but the Steelers might consider other defensive line options first.
