Vikings' Charles Demmings: Taken by Vikings
The Vikings selected Demmings in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 163rd overall.
Demmings (6-foot-1, 193 pounds) heads to Minnesota after five years at Stephen F. Austin, serving as a starter for the final 3.5 seasons. He never recorded more than 18 tackles in a season, but he piled up 39 pass breakups and eight interceptions over 32 games through his final three years.
