The Minnesota Vikings announced Friday that the team has agreed to a multi-year extension with general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah.

Adofo-Mensah was set to enter the final year of a four-year contract he signed after being hired in January 2022. Minnesota also signed head coach Kevin O'Connell to an extension in January.

"This organization means so much to me, and I've always believed in what we're building here. From the ownership to the incredible staff, there's a true commitment to creating a winning culture with the goal of competing year in and year out," Adofo-Mensah said.

"Kwesi's leadership, vision and collaboration with our coaching staff has positioned the Minnesota Vikings for sustained success," Vikings owner and president Mark Wilf said in a statement.

Wilf added: "We are extremely excited to continue this journey with Kwesi in this role and confident in the direction he and Kevin are leading our organization."

The Vikings have made two playoff appearances and own a 34-17 record over the past three seasons with Adofo-Mensah in the front office and O'Connell on the sideline. Minnesota went 14-3 last season and finished second in the NFC North.
