Riley Reiff's time in Minnesota is dwindling

The Minnesota Vikings got better over the weekend, adding defensive end Yannick Ngakoue. But, they might be losing someone else. Left tackle Riley Reiff is being asked to take a pay cut, and it doesn't seem like he wants to do that.

Hearing the Vikings have gone to LT Riley Reiff about re-structuring his contract. If he’s not willing, they may cut him to save more than $8M in cap space.

Sounds like it may not have been a fluke that Brian O’Neill was at LT at practice yesterday.

Reiff is technically "overpaid," but he's a solid player. Reiff is currently set to make almost $11 million this year. 

If the Vikings cut him, which it looks like they are going to, the team would gain $8.8 million in space.
