The Vikings re-signed quarterback John David Booty to their practice squad Saturday, only three days after releasing him from that unit in order to make room for offensive tackle Clint Oldenburg. He was released.
Vikings coach Brad Childress did not rule out re-signing Booty when the move was made and admitted it was done because the team needed to bring in an extra offensive lineman for practice purposes. Booty, a fifth-round pick of the Vikings in 2008, spent last season as the Vikings’ No. 3 quarterback. He was released in the final cuts coming out of the preseason this summer and then signed to the practice squad.
The Vikings are carrying three quarterbacks, Brett Favre, Tarvaris Jackson and Sage Rosenfels, on their active roster.
