The Vikings have agreed to terms on a contract extension with tight end Johnny Mundt.

Mundt reached an agreement to stay in Minnesota before hitting free agency, the team announced Friday.

Mundt spent the past two seasons with the Vikings, starting 12 of 34 games. He's totaled 36 catches for 312 yards and two receiving touchdowns, as well as played a significant role as a blocking tight end.

He initially joined Minnesota in 2022 after spending the first five seasons of his career with the Rams.

Los Angeles signed Mundt as an undrafted free agent out of Oregon in 2017. Mundt overlapped with Vikings Head Coach Kevin O'Connell and Offensive Coordinator Wes Phillips at the Rams and reconnected with both in Minnesota in 2022 after they won Super Bowl LVI.

Mundt is part of a Vikings tight ends room that includes T.J. Hockenson, who underwent ACL surgery in February; Josh Oliver; and Nick Muse, whom the Vikings re-signed Tuesday.

Howie: Even Sid would call this Vikings meltdown 'Unbelievable'

The Vikings wrote the book on heartbreak, but today’s stomach-turner didn’t even come with heartbreak. There was no drama. No tension. No what-if. Just a full-scale tap-out from a team that decided the fight wasn’t worth the bruises.

Howie: Vikings burning it down

Every move is sold as “strategic.” Every mistake is “part of the process.” Every loss is “valuable learning.” It’s a corporate PowerPoint in shoulder pads. This isn’t football anymore. It’s asset management in cleats.

Howie: Three wins, two QBs, one big mess

That’s Vikings football. Never boring, rarely logical, always exhausting. The highs, the lows, the quarterback merry-go-round, the running game that doesn’t exist, the offensive line held together with medical tape — it’s the same play, different actors.

Duluth’s most significant population story of the last 60 years is not growth — it is survival. That alone deserves credit. But it does not justify the current narrative.
