Harrison Smith staying with the Vikings after agreeing to a restructured contract

The Vikings' longest-tenured player will be in Minnesota for a 12th season.

Safety Harrison Smith agreed to a restructured deal with the team on Thursday that will keep him with the Vikings for the 2023 season. The deal will reduce Smith's base salary from $14.7 million to $8 million this year, according to a league source, and the 34-year-old safety can earn up to $2 million in incentives.

Smith, a six-time Pro Bowler, had spent the week weighing the option of a restructured deal with the Vikings against interest from a number of other teams, but decided to stay in Minnesota for another season.
