The Minnesota Vikings assessed several prospective players on August 24, including former New York Giants cornerback Tre Hawkins, who measures 6-foot-3. Hawkins, drafted in the sixth round in 2023, held regular-season experience with the Giants and has also been with the Washington Commanders and the Houston Texans. The Vikings are searching for defensive back options under defensive coordinator Brian Flores, focusing not only on Hawkins but also on DeAgo Brumfield and T.J. Moore, both of whom bring potential but lack NFL experience. Decisions from these workouts will influence the team's roster as the season approaches.
