The Vikings are retaining one of the long-time members of their defensive line.

The club has re-signed reserve defensive tackle Fred Evans to a one-year contract, a league source tells PFT’s Mike Florio.

Evans, 30, appeared in 14 games for the Vikings in 2013, making 20 tackles. He has played in 94 regular season games for Minnesota since 2007, notching 97 tackles and three sacks.

Evans (6-4, 305) is entering his eighth NFL season. He played collegiately at Texas State.
