Munnerlynâs Vikings tenure added to a long NFL rĂ©sumĂ©. He spent the 2014â2016 seasons in Minnesota after a career as a Panthers defensive back, appearing in 47 games with 30 starts. He recorded four interceptions, 12 passes defensed, two forced fumbles, three recoveries (including a 55-yard kickoff return TD against Green Bay in 2015), along with 172 tackles and a sack. His versatility and veteran presence have been well noted by those connected to his career. đ
Off the field, Munnerlyn has been building his coaching resume. He spent the 2025 season as head coach at Julius S. Chambers High School in Charlotte and has served as an assistant at Myers Park High School, while also doing private positional training. Earlier, he volunteered as a coach at Murphy High School in Mobile, Alabama, illustrating a steady transition from playing to coaching and mentoring young athletes. đ
In other UFL action, Lewis Cine was taken by the DC Defenders in the 2026 UFL Draft. Cine will join a roster that includes several former Vikings such as Andre Mintze, Jordan Taâamu, and Abram Smith. The former Georgia standout, viewed as a potentially Twin Cities-star when he played in college, heads to Washington, DC with the hope of a strong pro return. Cine is 26 years old, ready for another chapter in pro football. đȘđ§
Rounding out the Vikingsâ recent return-ventures, ex-QB Jaren Hall was also selected in the draft, landing with the Birmingham Stallions. Hall is 28, while Cine is 26, making for a pair of young Vikings alumni back in the pro mix. Best of luck to both in their spring-time pursuits in pro football. đ This recap comes from Heavy Sports, highlighting the ongoing post-Vikings era journeys for these players.
