<p>Minnesota Vikings fans waited patiently for the final offseason domino to fall, and it has arrived.</p>
<h4>The Vikings’ final offseason domino fell on Friday, as the team heads toward the summer.</h4>
<p>The organization extended Kwesi Adofo-Mensah’s contract on Friday, locking in the young executive for the long haul.</p>
<h3>Kwesi Adofo-Mensah’s Extension Is Here</h3>

Tom Pelissero tweeted Friday, “The Vikings have signed GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah to a multiyear contract extension, sources tell me and Ian Rapoport. The deal was signed Thursday night. Minnesota is 34-17 with two playoff trips since Kevin O’Connell and Adofo-Mensah arrived. Now both are signed for years to come.”
“The Vikings extended Kevin O’Connell’s contract shortly after the season ended in January. They continued work on Kwesi Adofo-Mensah’s and, after progress in recent weeks, got it done Thursday night.”
Craig Peters mentioned about Adofo-Mensah: “Adofo-Mensah has helped the Vikings go 34-17 in three regular seasons as he and his department have guided the roster through significant personnel changes. His tenure includes the hiring of O’Connell, the 2024 NFL Coach of the Year, as well as contract extensions for franchise pillars Justin Jefferson, T.J. Hockenson, Christian Darrisaw and Andrew Van Ginkel.”
Braintrust Is Locked In
Adofo-Mensah and O’Connell took over early in 2022, and since, the Vikings have fired off the NFL’s sixth-best record. The franchise notably offloaded contracts of aging, expensive veterans like Adam Thielen, Dalvin Cook, and Kirk Cousins, while achieving salary cap flexibility and drafting the quarterback of the future, J.J. McCarthy.
