Former Florida LB David Reese II went undrafted in the 2020 NFL Draft, but was quickly signed by the Carolina Panthers.
After being waived by Carolina, Reese has now found a new NFL home ahead of the 2020 regular season.
As you can see below, Reese was signed by the Minnesota Vikings, with former Mississippi State S Brian Cole II being waived to make room for him:

Will Cole find a new team ahead of the 2020 season? We’ll find out over the next couple of weeks.
