Vikings Activate Tight End Off Injured Reserve


He's been out since Week 4. 

The Minnesota Vikings have activated tight end Ben Ellefson off of the injured reserve.

Ellefson is expected to return to game action on Sunday after being out since Week 4.

In four games this season, the twenty-six-year-old has three receptions for 26 yards on three targets, however, his biggest asset to the team is his blocking abilities. He will look to put those abilities to work in Sunday's game against the New York Jets' strong run defense.

For his three-year career, Ellefson has just four receptions for 36 yards over 16 games.
