The team announced on Saturday that they had nixed Bashaud Breeland.
According to a source, a verbal altercation with coaches and teammates resulted in his release.
The situation began in a defensive meeting room on Saturday morning when the coach and the defensive back were watching a play from a previous game. According to the source, the defensive starters were told to come out of the lineup after Breeland went onto the field. The corner went back to the locker room after the game to change. After he returned to the practice field, a verbal altercation occurred between the Cornerback, several teammates and coaches and ended with Rick Spielman stepping in to deescalate the situation. The source said that the situation was addressed by Spielman in his office.
After signing a one-year, $3 million deal with Minnesota as a free agent, Breeland appeared in 13 games with the Vikings. Hours before he was released, the corner showed up on the injury report for the first time this week for non- football injury reasons and was listed as questionable for the Vikings' game Monday night at Chicago.

The Vikings' depth chart has four players on it, including two starting outside corners and a slot corner.
During his time in Minnesota, Breeland had a number of other mistakes. After the Vikings beat Detroit at home in Week 5, the defensive back deleted a message he had sent to his critics.
Two residents of a downtown Minneapolis apartment building have filed a civil suit against Breeland and several of his guests for smoking cannabis in public. The apartment company management refused to disrupt the defendants due to the fact that he is a Minnesota Vikings football player, according to the civil suit.
After four seasons with the Washington Football Team, he was drafted in the fourth round by Washington. He played in Green Bay and Kansas City.
