The Vikings selected the cornerback out of Clemson with the No. 42 overall pick in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft. After signing a four-year rookie contract worth $8.3 million, Booth played in just six games, making only one start, before suffering a season-ending knee injury in late November that required surgery to repair. He tallied 12 tackles and surrendered 11 catches on 13 targets, giving up a collective rating of 108.0 to opposing quarterbacks across 105 defensive snaps, per Pro Football Reference.
Booth was a gamble even before his knee issues last fall. Touted as a first-round talent possessing elite athleticism, the cornerback fell to the second round because of his injury history in college. After knee surgery last year, doctors have now performed five operations on Booth due to injury concerns since 2020.
“The red flags were up pre-draft,” KSTP’s Darren Wolfson said on the SKOR North Podcast in the wake of Booth’s injury eight months ago. “There were teams that had medical checks next to his name. … There were a number of teams that wouldn’t have touched him in the 30s, 40s, 50s or even 60s.”
General manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah pounced on the opportunity to select Booth with a value pick in the mid-second round, assuming the risk that accompanied the CB’s record of health issues. That move has not paid off thus far, and the developments of Tuesday don’t bode well for the immediate future.

I'm pretty much not evening counting on Booth anymore.

The move isnt panning-out for the Vikings and he most likely needs to find another way to make a living the rest of his days.

Would not surprise me if he fails to complete his rookie contract.

We had several discussions about Booth's injury history before the draft. Taking him in the 1st round would've been a mistake, but I had no problem in the 2nd. 

It's too early to write him off, but it seems with each passing day he gets closer and closer to earning the bust label. 

I wouldn't overreact about the latest thing though. It was said he was seen with his helmet off walking off the field with a trainer. No mention of a limp or a cart. He could've lost a contact for all we know.

Injuries happen. It sucks, but its part of the game unfortunately. Depth is important.
