MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — The Minnesota Vikings have been fairly active going into and during free agency, extending or re-signing talent. Quarterback Kirk Cousins, who was going into the third year of a three-year contract, will now remain with the team through 2022. Fullback C.J. Ham will also be a Viking for the foreseeable future. Tackle Rashod Hill, who has seen most of his action as a Vikings reserve, will continue blocking for them.
Maintaining talent allows a team to tread water, and unfortunately the team has lost a lot since the start of free agency, including Stefon Diggs (via trade), Trae Waynes and Linval Jones.
