Minnesota Vikings Fire GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah

Adofo-Mensah had been with the Vikings since 2022, when he was hired to replace Rick Spielman. He received a contract extension from Minnesota last offseason, but now the franchise is headed in a different direction after four years.

The timing of this move is fairly stunning. Adofo-Mensah was just at the Senior Bowl in Mobile, AL evaluating draft prospects this week. The Vikings' season came to an end nearly a full month ago. But now, on January 30, they'll begin the search for a new GM.

The Vikings have gone 43-25 in the regular season over the last four years under Adofo-Mensah and head coach Kevin O'Connell, who were brought on board together in 2022. They reached the postseason twice and were knocked out in the first round both times.

This is a developing story.
