The Fuzzy Future of Dalvin Cook in Minnesota

Vikings Insider, The GM’s View

According to Spotrac, the Vikings currently rank dead last in cap space among NFL teams, with $1.3 million of room. That only encompasses their top 51 players, which is what counts until the final cut in September. They’ll need to free up more cap room as this year progresses to add free agents (above minimum salary level), sign their upcoming draft class, extend Justin Jefferson, cover the remaining players beyond the top 51, including any players landing on injured reserve, and pay their practice squad.

In other words, more player cuts and restructures/extensions are coming over the next few months.
