The Vikings have activated cornerback Jabari Price from the suspended list.

Price was suspended by the NFL for the first two games of the season for violating the league's substance abuse policy. Price was arrested for suspicion of driving while impaired last December and had his charge reduced to careless driving in April as part of a plea agreement.

The Vikings kept an open spot on their active roster after placing John Sullivan on injured reserve, so there is no need for a corresponding move.

Price was a seventh-round pick in 2014. He played 14 games as a rookie. He played mostly on special teams and recorded 10 tackles in his first season.

With the reinstatement of Price, there are now six corners on the roster.
