Vikings Sign First-Round DT Caleb Banks to Fully Guaranteed Four-Year Deal

Minnesota signals a youth-driven overhaul of its defensive front.

Overview

  • Minnesota announced contracts with eight draft picks that included first-round defensive tackle Caleb Banks.
  • Banks’ deal is fully guaranteed for four years at about $21.28 million.
  • He is rehabbing a fractured fourth metatarsal after March surgery and is expected to resume on-field work in June.
  • The Vikings also signed third-round defensive tackle Domonique Orange and six other selections, leaving second-round linebacker Jake Golday as the only unsigned rookie.
  • The signings follow the releases of 2025 starters Jonathan Allen and Javon Hargrave, which opened a need for bigger, run-stopping help inside.
