There’s a lot to get excited about with the Minnesota Vikings’ future — a new stadium and a talented roster.
Another big reason for optimism, head coach Mike Zimmer, apparently isn’t going anywhere for a long time. The Vikings announced that they have signed Zimmer to a contract extension prior to his third year on the job. The news came as a bit of a surprise as the Vikings reported to camp. Terms of the contract are not yet known.
“We expect Mike to be here a long, long time,” Vikings GM Rick Spielman said.
