EAGAN, Minn. (AP) – The Minnesota Vikings were plenty busy as players reported for training camp on Tuesday, giving right tackle and offensive line leader Brian O’Neill a big contract extension and adding 10th-year veteran Jamal Adams to bolster their depth on defense. With a four-year, $96 million extension, the Vikings gave Brian O’Neill a new contract that’s the second-largest among NFL right tackles in terms of annual average value, just behind Lane Johnson of the Philadelphia Eagles. Most importantly, it’s another step toward long-term solidification of an offensive line that has been in perpetual flux under O’Connell. He has been an excellent blitzer who set the NFL season record for sacks by a defensive back (9½) in 2020 after being traded to the Seattle Seahawks.
