Minnesota Vikings general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah probably didn’t expect to be in a full-on rebuilding situation, but he might soon learn he doesn’t have a choice given the team’s dire salary cap circumstances.
On Wednesday, NFL insider Jason La Canfora reported the Vikings were “eager to move big contracts and reset their cap.”
That’s a completely different conversation than fans hoped the new regime would be having at this point. Let’s be honest, many expected things to remain mostly intact with enough upgrades to turn the team back into a playoff contender. Some actually believed the new general manager would just waltz right into the job and get things back on track without making any serious waves.
