The Minnesota Vikings agreed to a deal with former New York Giants defensive tackle Dalvin Tomlinson, his agency announced Monday.

Tomlinson is receiving a two-year contract worth $22 million with $20 million guaranteed, a source told Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

Minnesota needed to bolster the interior of its defensive line after allowing 134.4 yards per game on the ground in 2020, the sixth-most in the NFL.

The run-stuffing lineman racked up 3.5 sacks and 49 total tackles in his fourth season with the Giants.
