Bell makes sense as a backup body type to Jauan Jennings, and the Vikings may have a fair number of packages with Jennings as a blocker, so if he went down they'll need someone to replace that role.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Bell's body type matches Jennings' role, securing him a roster spot as backup.

Bell made the Vikings' 53-man roster as the sixth wide receiver, selected as a backup body type to Jauan Jennings. The source explains the Vikings may deploy Jennings as a blocker in multiple packages, so they needed a similar-bodied replacement option; Bell has the physical profile to fill that role, though not yet Jennings' skillset.
