As NFL free agency opens, cap-strapped Vikings keep moves modest

The Vikings kept things modest on the first day of free agency under new general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, as they grappled with the salary cap constraints left over from former GM Rick Spielman's final offseasons in Minnesota.

They announced their deal with former Bills defensive tackle Harrison Phillips, re-signed punter Jordan Berry to a one-year deal and made two other affordable moves with players familiar to their coaching staff. The Vikings signed former Rams tight end Johnny Mundt on a two-year deal that a league source said is worth up to $2.4 million, and brought in former Broncos offensive lineman Austin Schlottmann on a one-year veteran minimum deal.
