A classic practice squad depth reunion signing with minimal immediate impact. Multiple headlines confirm this is a practice squad move, not an active roster addition. The key signal is Jacksonville previously poached Hailassie from Minnesota's own practice squad, signaling some residual interest. Fans are cautiously optimistic given his preseason standout performances in the Vikings system. Hailassie likely remains a developmental depth piece with a long-shot path to the active roster.

This signing grades out as a significant overpay for the Minnesota Vikings — the team is paying more than the on-field production currently warrants. Kahlef's on-field performance ranks in the bottom quartile among NFL Ss, grading him as an unproven at the position. His $1.1M average annual value ranks as bargain money for the S market. The concern here is the gap between production and cost — unproven output at bargain money means the team is paying a premium above the player's on-field value. Kahlef is squarely in his prime, which adds to the deal's upside — the team should get multiple productive seasons out of this contract.
