The Minnesota Vikings and General Manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah have agreed on a multi-year contract extension, the team announced Friday. The move is a significant endorsement of Adofo-Mensah’s leadership and vision, which has positioned the team for sustained success.
Owner Mark Wilf praised Adofo-Mensah’s dedication and forward-thinking approach, saying he has been instrumental in shaping the roster and future of the franchise. Zygi Wilf also expressed excitement about continuing their journey with Adofo-Mensah, confident that he will continue to lead the organization towards long-term success.
Adofo-Mensah, entering the final year of his four-year contract, was thrilled to extend his tenure with the Vikings and Kevin O’Connell. He credited the Wilf family for placing trust in him and expressed gratitude for Minnesota’s warm welcome to his family.
Under Adofo-Mensah’s guidance, the Vikings have made significant strides, including a 34-17 regular season record in three seasons. The team has also signed key players such as Justin Jefferson, T.J. Hockenson, Christian Darrisaw, and Andrew Van Ginkel to contract extensions.
The Vikings’ front office has been aggressive in free agency and the NFL Draft, adding notable players like Sam Darnold, Aaron Jones, and J.J. McCarthy. The team also made strategic additions during 2025 free agency, focusing on building a championship-caliber roster.
Adofo-Mensah’s leadership has earned recognition, with multiple Vikings earning Pro Bowl selections under his guidance. The team’s regular-season win percentage of .667 ranks sixth in the NFL behind only a few elite franchises.
The extension is a testament to Adofo-Mensah’s ability to build and maintain a winning culture, and the Vikings are now poised to continue their pursuit of sustained success with their talented young roster and experienced coaching staff.
