The Vikings are currently way over the salary cap after two years of signing free agents; they have let RB Aaron Jones Sr. and DT Javon Hargrave know that they will be cut later this month, if the team is unable to trade them.
Jones came to Minnesota as a free agent in 2024, after an excellent career with the Packers; he was a strong producer in his first year as a Viking, but a hamstring injury limited him in '25. Hargrave had just finished his first season in Minnesota. Both of them are over 30.
