Johnny Mundt contract terms revealed

When the Minnesota Vikings re-signed Johnny Mundt to a one-year contract, the details of the deal were mostly unknown.

The Star Tribune’s Ben Goessling gave a more in-depth look at the terms of the re-signing. According to Goessling, Mundt will earn $2 million this year with a $1.125 million base salary, $85,000 in per-game roster bonuses and $40,000 in workout bonuses. He also has a $750,000 signing bonus and up to $500,000 in performance incentives.

Slightly over the predicted number of $1.5 million, Mundt’s cap hit will be $2 million.

Head coach Kevin O’Connell labeled Mundt “the best tight end three” in the NFL, and the front office rewarded him as such. Since joining the Vikings in 2022, Mundt has been a consistent contributor to the offense behind T.J. Hockenson and Josh Oliver.

With Hockenson’s return up in the air, the Vikings needed to secure depth in the tight end room. Because of his familiarity with the system and O’Connell, Mundt’s deal was a priority this offseason for Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and the Vikings brass.
