The NFL's plans for using replacement officials, if needed in 2026, include a significant shift toward centralized officiating from NYC. Also, in a statement, NFL exec Jeff Miller said the league has been "compelled" to begin contingency planning. STORY: espn.com/nfl/story/_/id…

"C.J. was just a guy that gets to work, man. He just put his head down, and whatever you asked him to do, he was going to do it." @cjham28 gave it his all over 10 years with his home-state, and his influence will continue on in the locker room. 📰: vikings.com/news/longform/…

Our @espn Vikings free agency blog has been updated to include today's agreement with QB Carson Wentz. This month, they have re-signed 4 of their UFAs and added 3 from the outside. Offer sheet to RFA OL Ryan Van Demark is pending. espn.com/nfl/story/_/id…

Our @espn story on QB Carson Wentz returning to the Vikings. The team has been talking all winter about adding competition and elevating overall performance at the position after seeing what happened in 2023 and 2025. espn.com/nfl/story/_/id…

The Vikings have indeed re-signed QB Carson Wentz. Given the depth issues they've faced at the position in 2023, and again in 2025, they want to minimize the risk of having an inexperienced QB on the field in 2026.

NFLRA's Scott Green brought up two concerns: 1) Increased vulnerability to gambling concerns with replacement officials 2) Enforcement of player safety rules when size and speed of game will be unfamiliar, to say the least
DeMaurice Smith@demauricesmith

Several years ago the Players stood with the officials when they were locked out an was prepared to file a grievance that the NFL’s removal of the experienced and on-field first responders created an unreasonable health and safety risk. Still the right thing to do.

Nothing creates more interest in the NFL than trades. This is why Cleveland’s proposal to allow teams to trade picks up to 5 years out as opposed to 3 years out makes so much sense. More picks to trade = more trades = more interest & team building options.
Adam Schefter@AdamSchefter

If it seems like there have been more trades than ever, there have been. Since the 2026 new league year started last week, there have been 18 trades, including Andy Dalton today. From the day the 2025 new league year started until the NFL Draft, there were 15 trades. One week of the league year this year already has produced three more trades than there were over weeks last year.

The NFL is laying the groundwork for (again) using replacement officials if it can't reach a CBA agreement, per emails reviewed by ESPN. (As @ProFootballTalk said.) NFLRA's Scott Green: "Frankly, I'm surprised they would even consider it after 2012." espn.com/nfl/story/_/id…

@SeifertESPN To be clear...was not making fun of you. Just the term. You using it felt like you were doing it on purpose. Apologies for that misinterpretation. Either way I thought we needed to start an official glossary. These terms have historic significance.

I wrote "right-sizing" -- but the Vikings have never used it in any conversation I've had. It was intended unironically, without reference to other teams cutting back payroll for cashflow reasons. This was coming for the Vikings at some point, based on their 2024-25 spending.

@SeifertESPN Hi Kevin, this should say, "UNDER" the cap in 2027, not over.

The Vikings have had their quietest free agency of the decade. There has been no order from ownership to reduce cash spending. But in this interim period, they are aggressively right-sizing the finances that all teams must manage at some point. espn.com/nfl/story/_/id…
