John Carlson's roster spot in jeopardy?
John Carlson - TE - Minnesota Vikings
Jan. 11, 2013 - 11:05 AM ET

The Vikings would take a $4 million cap hit to cut John Carlson before the start of the league year, but would not owe him any more guaranteed money.

If Carlson is still on the roster by the first day of the league year, he will collect $1.2 million in guarantees. One of last year's worst free agent signings, Carlson was paid $7.9 million in 2012 to post an 8/43/0 stat line across 14 games. He has no role in the Vikings offense.
