Minnesota Vikings sign J'Marcus Webb

The Minnesota Vikings have signed offensive tackle J'Marcus Webb just a day after he became a free agent.

Webb was released by the Chicago Bears during the final set of roster cuts yesterday, ending a two-year stay at the franchise.

The 25-year-old is expected to act as a back-up for the Vikings, with his versatility allowing him to play at either left or right tackle.

Webb was a seventh-round pick in the 2010 NFL draft, eventually being selected 218th overall.
