After a lot of discussion about his contract situation, Minnesota Vikings outside linebacker Danielle Hunter has reported to training camp per head coach Kevin O’Connell.
It’s worth noting that O’Connell doesn’t expect him to participate right away due to being away from the team since the playoff loss to the New York Giants. This is likely Hunter reporting to camp to avoid fines but is holding in until he gets a contract resolution.
After amassing 10.5 sacks and 76 pressures in 2022, Hunter only has a $4.9 million base salary for the 2023 season, the final year of his contract. That should hopefully be rectified before the start of the season.
The Vikings veterans report to training camp on Tuesday with the first practice scheduled for Wednesday afternoon.
