EDEN PRAIRIE — The Minnesota Vikings have signed former Texans receiver Lestar Jean.
The team announced the signing Tuesday.
Jean is entering his fourth season. He joins a receiving corps that appears pretty well stocked with Greg Jennings, Cordarrelle Patterson, Jerome Simpson and Jarius Wright.
The 6-foot-3 receiver spent his rookie season in 2011 on injured reserve. He caught 10 passes for 186 yards and a touchdown in 27 games for the Texans over the last two seasons.
Jean played at Florida Atlantic and was not drafted.
