According to Mike Klis, former Broncos LB Todd Davis has started the process of COVID-19 testing to visit with the Vikings.
Aaron Wilson adds that the Vikings also worked out LB James Burgess.
Davis is a strong candidate to sign with Minnesota given they just lost LB Anthony Barr for the season with a torn pectoral.
The veteran linebacker was released by Denver coming out of camp a few weeks ago in a salary-shedding move.
Davis, 28, originally signed on with the Saints as an undrafted free agent out of Sacramento State back in 2014. He lasted less than a year in New Orleans before he was waived during the season and later claimed off of waivers by the Broncos.
The Broncos brought Davis back on a one-year, $2.746 million restricted contract for the 2016 season before signing him to a three-year, $15 million contract that includes $6 million guaranteed in 2018.
Denver released Davis coming out of training camp in 2020.
In 2019, Davis appeared in 14 games for the Broncos and recorded 134 tackles, no sacks or interceptions and one pass defense.
