Vikings bringing back Laquon Treadwell to replace injured Chad Beebe
The Vikings will re-sign wide receiver Laquon Treadwell to replace an injured Chad Beebe, a source said Tuesday. Beebe suffered an ankle injury in Sunday’s 34-14 win over the Oakland Raiders. A source said an MRI revealed he has torn ligaments, and it is uncertain how long he will be out.
Treadwell rejoins the Vikings after being waived on Aug. 31. He underachieved after being taken with the No. 23 pick in the 2016 NFL draft, and had just 56 catches in his first three seasons.
However, Treadwell knows the system and could fit right back in with the Vikings, who are short at wide receiver. The only other healthy receivers on the roster are starters Adam Thielen and Stefon Diggs and rookie Bisi Johnson.
Treadwell is expected to be in uniform for Sunday’s game at Chicago. He is a native of Crete, Ill., a Chicago suburb.
