A low-risk, low-reward practice squad addition with minimal immediate impact. Headlines confirm this as a practice squad signing, not a roster elevation. Ross brings linebacker depth as Minnesota pushes through the home stretch of the season. Fans see this as routine roster management, not a meaningful defensive upgrade. Ross remains a long-shot to crack the active roster without injuries forcing his hand.

This signing grades out as a reasonable signing for the Minnesota Vikings — the team is getting significantly more on-field production than what they're paying for. Josh's on-field performance ranks in the bottom third among NFL LBs, grading him as a depth piece at the position. His $1.1M average annual value ranks as bargain money for the LB market. The production-to-cost ratio is favorable — depth piece output at a bargain price point represents solid asset management. Josh is squarely in his prime, which adds to the deal's upside — the team should get multiple productive seasons out of this contract.
