The Vikings gave right guard Will Fries a five-year, $88 million contract and the cap hits each year, according to the Star Tribune's Ben Goessling, are $5.64 million in 2025, $17.22 million in 2026 and then $21.5 million over the final three years of the deal.

This offseason has been about building the trenches for the Minnesota Vikings. Kwesi Adofo-Mensah had plenty of cap space available after opting against bringing Sam Darnold back on a gaudy deal. That choice allowed the Vikings to go after talent on the offensive and defensive lines.
