Aaron Jones Restructures Contract to Remain with Vikings

Veteran running back Aaron Jones has agreed to a restructured contract with the Minnesota Vikings for the 2026 season, reducing his base salary to $5.6 million with $5 million guaranteed. The move helps the Vikings get under the salary cap. Jones, 31, was limited to 12 games in 2025 due to a hamstring injury, recording 548 rushing yards. He will continue to share backfield duties with Jordan Mason as the team looks to improve their 23rd-ranked rushing offense.
