Fields, an undrafted free agent out of Clemson, was acquired by Minnesota from Kansas City before the 2019 season and played the season opener before spending the rest of the year on the practice squad.
Iloka played in 16 games for the Vikings in 2018, after six seasons in Cincinnati, playing all 16 games that year and finishing with 16 tackles. He sat out the 2019 season after being waived by Dallas. Minnesota signed him to the practice squad Sept. 17.
Teams can call up two players a week from the practice squad then return them the following day. Each player can be called up twice before having to be exposed to waivers, which would occur the third time they were sent back.
