Vikings Eye Christian Rozeboom as Potential LB Replacement

The Minnesota Vikings may look to add depth at linebacker during the 2026 offseason, potentially targeting Christian Rozeboom of the Carolina Panthers.

The Vikings might pivot to Christian Rozeboom if Eric Wilson’s market becomes too expensive. The 29-year-old Rozeboom, who led the Panthers with 45 stops in 2025, is seen as a cheaper alternative to help bolster depth.

Safety Nick Scott praised Rozeboom's ability to hold his own since coming undrafted, making him a potential ideal fit for defensive coordinator Brian Flores' system.
