Vikings Shake Up Front Office, Focus on 2026 Offseason
TL;DR
The Minnesota Vikings relieved GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah of his duties and named Rob Brzezinski to lead the personnel department as the team maps out the 2026 offseason, with free agency opening mid-March and the April 23-25 NFL Draft on the horizon. Minnesota faces a projected cap north of $300 million but sits roughly $40 million over the limit, likely prompting contract restructures, cuts, or retirements to create room. The mailbag also touches on cap strategies, draft targets, and compensatory picks tied to players like Darnold, while owner Mark Wilf indicated openness to a future GM but emphasized focusing on the upcoming offseason.
