Nope, resigned on a 3 year deal. $12.5m guarantee& $22.5. overall value. Eric Wilson played in 2025 as id he had Brian Flores brain in his head. He put up one of the smartest seasons i ever witnessed from a viking lber. I love that they kept him.
Signed a depth corner that is familiar yo the viking D staff away from pittsburgh.

I agree with the SI opine on Pierre. intant grade = b+... I'd allow same grade for Wilson Ink.
Read the last paragraph about the kids ( he'll turn 30 this year) family. I just cant stop rooting any harder than for men like this. The Warrick Dunn Bio. Warrick never got the giant contract, was never a full time star rb or lasted 15 years in the league. But that 1st signing bonus he recieved. He didnt waste money on a diamond mouthpiece or a porsche/ ferrari. Never caught in the strip club nar brawl. Nope. Warrick with his 1st paycheck, bought his mama a house.
Ive never forgotten that story.
My old teamate i periodically bring up. Former Rams Browns cb. He did that exact same thing. Vinces mama was still raising children. Living in an apt, barely making monthly food/rent.
Mas respect for the guys that never forget how they got there.
Motivated footballers... Give them the cash!
The overpaid guy wasting a $m on diamond tooth vanity swag? I do not like that look. But? Who am I to criticize Jjets. Its his cash.
If it were my big payday, and I was mid 20's. I would spent it on far more dubious swag. Anything red- lol- a red car, a red head or 10 and a large bottle of qualudes.... Well, maybe not the car.
