The Minnesota Vikings officially hosted free agent CB Asante Samuel Jr . for a visit on Friday.

Samuel Jr is on a bit of a tour around the league right now after recently being medically cleared following offseason neck surgery.

Samuel recently met with the Panthers and Packers. He still has visits lined up with the 49ers on Monday, the Bears on Tuesday, and the Steelers on Wednesday of next week.

Back in May, Jeremy Fowler reported that Samuel visited with the Saints and had a check-up in early July.

Samuel, 25, is the son of former NFL CB Asante Samuel and opted out of the 2020 collegiate season after eight games at Florida State. The Chargers drafted Samuel Jr. with pick No. 47 overall in the second round of the 2021 NFL Draft.

Samuel played out the final year of his four-year deal worth $7,222,944 that included a $2,613,050 signing bonus. He’s been testing the market as an unrestricted free agent.

In 2024, Samuel appeared in four games for the Chargers and recorded 13 tackles, no interceptions and two pass defenses.
