Hicks restructures his contract ...
Hicks will stay with the Vikings on a restructured contract. Details are not yet available.
Would not have lost sleep if they had just released Hicks. But if the money is low the thinking is probably that he's experienced depth at a position where we just don't have much.
Good move, gets us closer to cap compliance and leaves us with a starter at ILB if we miss out on Edmunds in FA. If we get Edmunds, we can always cut Hicks or keep him as low cost depth.
Any word on the cap savings? Can't seem to find anything on it
Meh. He was horrible in coverage where he spent 591 snaps out of 991.
Prolly all Donatell's fault though right?
It could signal they are not interested in any high priced free agent linebacker like a Drue Tranquill for example.
I would not have lost sleep either if he walked...His best days are behind him, but Flores must have given the thumbs-up under the right $$ circumstances.
OH boy! This is the kind of news that would make Aaron Rodgers want to come back to the Packers!
