Wide receiver Adam Thielen has been one of the NFL's best bargains for the duration of his career, and the Minnesota Vikings have rewarded him with a new contract.
Thielen has agreed to a four-year, $64 million extension with Minnesota, according to his representation, the Institute for Athletes (h/t Ben Goessling of the Star Tribune). The deal could max out at $73 million.
While Thielen was paid just $3.85 million last season, his agent, Blake Baratz, didn't anticipate his client would hold out in hopes of receiving a more lucrative deal.
