Vikings' Kyle Rudolph hopes for quick resolution to contract issue

Kyle Rudolph said Monday he'd like clarity soon about his future with the Vikings, just days after the team and Rudolph's camp stopped negotiating a possible extension.

Broken-down talks have put Rudolph square on the trading block in Minnesota, which head coach Mike Zimmer and Rudolph acknowledged Monday during the inaugural Mike Zimmer Golf Classic in Eden Prairie. The Pro Bowl tight end is due $7.625 million, none guaranteed, in a contract season and the Vikings need salary cap space.

Rudolph, 29, reiterated his desire to stay with the Vikings but said a quick resolution would benefit both sides regardless of where he lands.
