BIG-NEWS; Legacy Alert: From Undrafted to Unstoppable? Vikings Bring in Randy Moss’ Son for Rookie Tryout Just After Draft— Is History About to Repeat Itself…See More…
a nostalgic nod to Minnesota Vikings history, Montigo Moss, son of NFL Hall of Famer Randy Moss, has accepted an invitation to the team’s rookie minicamp following the 2025 NFL Draft. The undrafted wide receiver from the University of Maine is set to don the purple and gold, evoking memories of his father’s electrifying 1998 rookie season, where Randy amassed 69 catches, 1,313 yards, and 17 touchdowns, cementing his legend.
Montigo, a 6’1”, 220-pound receiver, showcased his potential in 2024, recording career highs of 61 receptions, 722 yards, and seven touchdowns, earning All-CAA honors. His collegiate career totaled 143 catches for 1,692 yards and 16 scores, proving his consistency at the FCS level. While the leap to the NFL is daunting, Montigo’s invite offers a chance to follow in his father’s footsteps with the same franchise that drafted Randy 21st overall in 1998.
The Vikings’ receiver room, led by stars like Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, is crowded, making Montigo’s path to the roster challenging. Yet, precedents like Adam Thielen, who rose from an undrafted tryout to Pro Bowl status, fuel optimism. Fans are buzzing with excitement, seeing this as a full-circle moment for the Moss family, especially after Randy’s recent cancer battle.
Minicamp, slated for early May, is Montigo’s first step. Can he channel his father’s brilliance and carve his own NFL legacy? Vikings Nation is watching.
