Vikings Re-Sign LB Erin Henderson

Erin Henderson‘s representation announced that he’ll be returning to the Minnesota Vikings this year after reaching an agreement with the team.

Jeremy Fowler of the Pioneer Press reports that Henderson gets a one-year deal worth $2-million deal.

Henderson, 25, is coming off of a great season for the Vikings in which he was ranked by Pro Football Focus as the #4 outside linebacker in a 4-3 defense. While he’s not as effective at rushing the passer, Henderson plays the run as well as anyone and the fact that he’s only 25 makes the deal even better for the Vikings.

We had him listed as the #4 best available free agent in our Top 50 Free Agents list.
