The Vikings can start negotiating a contract extension with Justin Jefferson

How the contract will be structured will speak volumes

The 2022 regular season is over which means that offseason discussion is going to become more prevalent, even as the Minnesota Vikings are in the thick of the playoff race.

One of the biggest discussion points of the 2023 offseason will be the potential extension of Justin Jefferson. NFL rules state that any player that has completed their third full season may start negotiating a contract extension the day after the regular season concludes.

How the Vikings end up getting the extension structured will speak volumes about how they will be able to build the rest of their roster.
