The Vikings who are set to be free agents in 2022

The Vikings have made plenty of decisions to cut back on veteran contracts these past two offseasons.

Players like Xavier Rhodes and Riley Reiff have departed in free agency, giving plenty of young players opportunities. Due to all the one-year deals the Vikings gave to free agents this offseason, the team has even more decisions to make in the not-so-distant future.

From safety Harrison Smith to right tackle Brian O’Neill, the Vikings have a plethora of players set to be free agents in the offseason of 2022. Vikings Wire compiled a list of those who, as of now, are set to have their contracts run out that offseason. Note: this list was compiled with the help of Spotrac.

Here it is:
