This one is fairly self explanatory. Kline’s contract wasn’t huge, but the Vikings are saving money, so maybe the team thought they could re-sign Kline for cheaper than what they were paying him.

This decision would be one of stability, and the Vikings offensive line, barring any good draft picks or free agency signings, would look the same to what it was in 2019-20.
