Ben Tate

The Minnesota Vikings (6-9) had a very short relationship with running back Ben Tate, after placing him on waivers today -- the second team to cut him loose in less than a month. Tate was released by the Cleveland Browns in November.

The Minnesota Vikings have claimed veteran running back Ben Tate off waivers, after being cut by the Cleveland Browns. Tate rushed for 124 yards against the Titans earlier this season, but has only averaged 2 yards-per-carry since that game. With Adrian Peterson out for the season, the hope is that Tate will help fill the void.
