The Minnesota Vikings have agree to terms with free-agent offensive guard Vladimir Ducasse, according to multiple reports.
Ducasse, a second-round pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, started four of 16 games played last season – his fourth with the New York Jets.
Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports reports the two sides agreed on a one-year deal.

According to 1500 ESPN, Ducasse was benched early last season after being flagged for six penalties in the first four games.
The 6-foot-5, 326-pounder isn’t projected as a starter. He’ll provide depth behind starters Charlie Johnson and Brandon Fusco. Minnesota’s entire offensive line will be back next year, with Matt Kalil and Phil Loadholt at left and right tackle and John Sullivan at center.
