**EAGAN, Minn. —** A former NFC North foe is heading back to the division.
The Vikings on Tuesday announced they've agreed to terms with cornerback Jeff Okudah, the No. 3 overall selection of the 2020 NFL Draft by the Detroit Lions.
Okudah's time in the Motor City was hampered by injuries. He landed on Injured Reserve in December 2020 after his ninth game and in September 2021 after Detroit's season-opener.
The Ohio State product returned to action in 2022 when he started all 15 games he played and recorded career highs of 73 tackles and seven passes defended, as well as his second career interception (returned 20 yards for a TD) and first forced fumble.
The Lions traded Okudah to the Falcons in April 2023 for a fifth-round pick (it was involved in a trade that landed Dontayvion Wicks with the Packers that year).
