The #Vikings and WR Adam Thielen have agreed to terms on a revised contract, reducing his salary by $2 million and removing $4M in incentives, per sources. This wasn’t about money — Thielen wanted to come home, and volunteered to help the team’s salary cap to make it happen.

The #Vikings and WR Adam Thielen have agreed to terms on a revised contract, reducing his salary by $2 million and removing $4M in incentives, per sources. This wasn’t about money — Thielen wanted to come home, and volunteered to help the team’s salary cap to make it happen.

Adam Thielen's career earnings total over $91.9 million, with his most recent figures from sources like Spotrac.com showing him with around $83.6 million earned by the end of 2024, and this total is projected to increase in 2025 following the trade back to the Minnesota Vikings. 

He recently signed a contract with the Carolina Panthers for 2025, which was then revised in a trade back to the Vikings, who are now responsible for his salary.
