Former Vikings WR hauls in first touchdown catch of NFL career on Sunday

Former Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Brandon Zylstra found the end zone for the Carolina Panthers during the early slate of Sunday’s Week 2 games.

After spending one season in the Twin Cities, wide receiver Brandon Zylstra was let go by the Minnesota Vikings prior to the 2019 campaign. It didn’t take long for Zylstra to find a new home in the NFL though as he was claimed off waivers by the Carolina Panthers shortly after his departure from the Vikings.

Now, the former Minnesota receiver is in the middle of his third season with the Panthers, and on Sunday, he finally hauled in his first career touchdown pass since he entered the NFL in 2018.
