The next breakout player on the Minnesota Vikings defense might not come from the NFL Draft. After signing CFL standouts Jacob Roberts and Jaylon Hutchings from the Calgary Stampeders, early film is already turning heads. Hutchings, in particular, looks like a problem. With a stout frame, surprising quickness, and a powerful pass-rush arsenal, he brings a skill set that feels familiar to Vikings fans. If you like what Jaylen Redmond provides in the trenches, Hutchings could be the next defensive lineman to quietly carve out a role in Minnesota’s front seven heading into 2026.
