Vikings Owners Deny Sale Talk After Sharp Spending Cut

Sources frame the pullback as a cap reset following last year's cash-heavy push.

Overview

  • Multiple reporters and an NBC source said Sunday the Wilfs are not selling the Vikings.
  • The team’s cash spending fell from $350 million in 2025 to $226 million for 2026, a drop that sparked a Saturday column asking if a sale was coming.
  • Interim GM Rob Brzezinski and edge rusher Jonathan Greenard each said recent moves, including Greenard’s trade, came down to contract costs and the salary cap.
  • Minnesota is still conducting an open-ended search for a permanent general manager after firing Kwesi Adofo-Mensah in January, with Brzezinski serving in the role.
  • NBC’s reporting noted the NFL prefers not to run two team sales at once as the Seahawks change hands, which further weakens talk of a near-term Vikings sale.
