Quarterback Situation Impacts 2024 Cap Space

The Minnesota Vikings have released their 2024 salary cap contracts, providing insight into the team's financial situation and future plans.

Kirk Cousins, the quarterback, will have a significant impact on the 2024 cap space, regardless of whether he remains on the team.

The Vikings have done well to shed expensive contracts and restructure existing deals, creating cap space for future signings and roster moves. The quarterback situation will continue to be a key factor in determining the team's salary cap flexibility in the coming years.
