NFL Rumors: Vikings Eye Justin Jefferson, Danielle Hunter Contracts amid Cousins Buzz

Quarterback Kirk Cousins isn't the only player the Minnesota Vikings are hoping to bring back in 2024.

The Vikings are working on both an extension for wide receiver Justin Jefferson and a new contract for defensive end Danielle Hunter, according to ESPN's Dan Graziano.

Neither project is expected to be easy, as both Jefferson and Hunter could be the top positional players on the market if they hit free agency, according to Graziano.

Jefferson, who missed seven full games due to a hamstring injury and was later limited by a chest injury, recorded a career-low 1,074 receiving yards for five touchdowns in 2023.
