Sources: 3. Developments: 2. In early August 2026, the Minnesota Vikings were weighing wide receiver Jordan Addison’s next contract after extending offensive tackle Brian O’Neill. Addison’s rookie production had dipped in 2025, and the team was comparing his potential deal to the high‑profile contracts of other receivers, such as the New Orleans Saints’ $132 million agreement with Chris Olave. The following day, the Vikings exercised Addison’s fifth‑year option, keeping him under team control for two more seasons. Their upcoming negotiations were said to be influenced by the recent $140 million, four‑year contract signed by fellow 2023 first‑rounder Zay Flowers, setting a new market benchmark for rookie receivers. The update also noted running back Jordan Mason’s improved physical condition and his two‑year, $10.5 million extension, but the primary focus remained on Addison’s contract outlook. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-02: Minnesota Vikings' Jordan Addison contract talks and Jordan Mason praised for shape The Vikings exercised Jordan Addison's fifth‑year option amid contract talks spurred by Zay Flowers' $140 M deal, while RB Jordan Mason impressed coaches with improved shape and earned a $10.5 M extension. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/minnesota-vikings-jordan-addison-contract-talks-and-jordan-mason-praised-for-shape ### 2026-08-01: Minnesota Vikings assess Jordan Addison contract as wide‑receiver market heats up The Vikings signed tackle Brian O'Neill to a four‑year extension and now face a pivotal decision on WR Jordan Addison’s contract, a move complicated by the Saints’ $132 million deal for Chris Olave. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/minnesota-vikings-assess-jordan-addison-contract-as-widereceiver-market-heats-up --- Cite as: Minnesota Vikings WR contract negotiations.
