Vikings Trade for 49ers Running Back Jordan Mason

Minnesota acquires Mason and a draft pick in exchange for two picks, signing him to a two-year deal worth up to $12 million.

The Minnesota Vikings have traded for San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason, a key contributor during Christian McCaffrey's absence last season.
As part of the trade, the Vikings receive Mason and the 187th pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, sending the 160th pick in 2025 and a sixth-round pick in 2026 to the 49ers.
Mason has signed a two-year deal with the Vikings, including $7 million fully guaranteed and a maximum value of $12 million.
The 49ers decided to trade Mason after placing a second-round tender on him, opting for cost-saving measures in a challenging offseason.
This move is part of broader roster adjustments by the 49ers, including releasing and re-signing key players like fullback Kyle Juszczyk.
