Vikings Promote Ryan D’Imperio From Practice Squad

The Vikings have promoted Fullback Ryan D’Imperio from the practice squad to the active 53 man roster.   To make room on the roster the Vikings have decided to waive tight end Allen Reisner.

D’Imperio is likely to help spell tight end / fullback Jim Kleinsasser in a lead blocking roll for running back Adrian Peterson.

D’Imperio was selected by the Vikings with the 237th overall pick in the seventh round of the 2010 NFL Draft.
