Vikings won't exercise option on S Andrew Sendejo
Another safety will hit the open market.
NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reports the Minnesota Vikings are not exercising the option on starting safety Andrew Sendejo, making him a free agent.
The move comes as the Vikings are hitting a cap crunch ahead of the new league year opening on Wednesday. The decision not to exercise Sendejo's contract saves Minnesota $5.5 million. The Vikings entered the day with just $4.37 million in cap space, per Over The Cap.
Sendejo entered the 2018 season as the Vikings starter, but played just five games before suffering a groin injury and was eventually placed on injured reserve. After eight seasons, Minnesota is moving on from their starter.
