The Minnesota Vikings began shaping their 2024 roster on Monday afternoon by signing 10 players to futures contracts.
A futures contract is one that a player signs when they aren’t signed to a team’s active roster when the season is over. It is for the league minimum depending on how many service years the player has. The players don’t impact the salary cap until the new league year starts on March 13th.
Each year, teams usually sign in the ballpark of 10 players to futures contracts. They are usually players that have been on their practice squads throughout the year but every so often, teams will sign a player from another practice squad.
The Vikings signed 10 players to futures contracts on Monday afternoon with all of them having been on the practice squad.
