Vikings' Star DE Danielle Hunter Demands New Deal, Threatens Holdout

  • Danielle Hunter, a key defensive player for the Minnesota Vikings, plans to hold out of mandatory minicamp in pursuit of a new, long-term contract.
  • Hunter has been away from the Vikings' voluntary offseason program and is only due $5.5 million guaranteed next season, the last year of his current deal.
  • The Vikings have received trade offers for Hunter, but prefer to re-sign him.
  • If Hunter and the Vikings cannot reach an agreement, he risks incurring fines for skipping mandatory minicamp.
  • Hunter has recorded 71 sacks since 2015 but missed most of the last two seasons with injuries.
