          MINNEAPOLIS -- The Minnesota Vikings made the signing of J'Marcus Webb official on Wednesday morning, announcing they'd brought back the right tackle who'd spent the 2013 season with the Vikings.

          To make room for Webb, the Vikings put right tackle Phil Loadholt on injured reserve; Loadholt will have surgery on Friday on his torn pectoral muscle and will miss the rest of the season.

          Webb started for the Vikings last Nov. 7 in a win over the Washington Redskins, after Loadholt had sustained a concussion four days earlier against Dallas. Coach Mike Zimmer said on Monday that Mike Harris would "probably" take over for Loadholt at right tackle, but even if Webb doesn't start, the Vikings could use additional depth at tackle.
