Vikings General Manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah is up for a contract extension deal, following coach Kevin O’Connell’s recent agreement. According to reports, talks are underway with Adofo-Mensah to reach a new deal, which could bring stability to the team.
The Vikings prioritized extending O’Connell first due to time constraints, as failing to agree would have left him as a free agent or trade target by 2025. However, there were reported issues between O’Connell and the ownership group last season, with ESPN citing O’Connell’s disappointment after the 2023 season.
The swift extension of O’Connell’s contract has been seen as evidence that all was well between the coach and the Vikings. Nevertheless, sources suggest that a deal for Adofo-Mensah is imminent, which would provide long-term security for the team.
