The Arizona Cardinals have dealt third-year cornerback A.J. Jefferson to the Minnesota Vikings in exchange for undisclosed draft picks, according to multiple reports. Jefferson, 24, appeared in all 16 games with the Cardinals last season, recording 66 tackles and intercepting one pass.

Here is the latest from training camp. The team had until 9 p.m. ET on Friday night to cut their roster down 53 players.
