All major Minnesota Vikings’ offseason dominoes have fallen through mid-March — except Justin Jefferson’s contract extension.
A New Theory on Justin Jefferson’s Giant Price Tag
The Vikings entered the offseason with these four key items requiring resolution:
- Retain defensive coordinator Brian Flores
- Decide Kirk Cousins’ free-agent fate
- Decide Danielle Hunter’s free-agent fate
- Extend Justin Jefferson
The first three are in the books, leaving Jefferson’s next contract still on the to-do list.
According to The Athletic’s Alec Lewis, more clarity may be available on Jefferson’s asking price, a deal that could eventually check in north of $30 million per season.
