The Minnesota Vikings have secured punter Ryan Wright with a one-year contract valued at $1.75 million, with possibilities for incentives to increase the total to $2 million. Wright has consistently served as Minnesota's punter since the onset of the Kevin O'Connell era, participating in all 17 games across the last three seasons. In the previous season, he averaged 40.6 net yards per punt over 56 attempts, including a long of 66 yards. Notably, 48% of his punts were placed within the 20-yard line, demonstrating his ability to control field position. Wright's performance earned him a 72.3 punting grade from Pro Football Focus, ranking him 17th among his peers. This contract ensures the Vikings have their punting situation stabilized as they navigate the complexities of free agency.
