If you’ve been reading about the Vikings’ offseason outlook, then the three players the Star Tribune mentioned as possible cuts to save money, won’t surprise you much.
The Star Tribune reported that defensive tackle Linval Joseph, offensive lineman Riley Reiff and corner Xavier Rhodes could all be possible cuts by the Vikings this offseason.
The Star Tribune also reported that Joseph is due $11.15 million, Reiff is due $10.9 million and Rhodes is due $9.9 million.
This list is definitely not surprising in theory, but it will be interesting to see what the Vikings actually put into practice. Will they only cut one or two of those players and restructure some other players? Or will they part ways with all? It’s hard to say, but it seems likely that at least one of those guys will either take a pretty big pay cut or be forced to find a different place to play.
