Jefferson confirmed the record-breaking contract Monday morning.
According to multiple NFL insiders, Jefferson has inked a four-year deal worth $140 million to stay with the Minnesota Vikings. The deal reportedly includes a record-breaking $110 million guaranteed.
"The time has finally come — the deal I have been waiting for since I was a little kid," Jefferson said in the video posted Monday morning. "To my mom and dad, thank you. This is a journey for all of us, and y'all are still with us every step of the way," Jefferson continued. "To my brothers, Rickey and Jordan, y'all are everything. Y'all made me who I am today. This is a new step in our journey, a new step in life. I always dreamt of this moment and to now share it with all of y'all — a dream that we all had, it's a blessing.
Vikings general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah never blinked when asked about Jefferson's future, and the agreement Monday means he made good on his word that he was 100% dedicated to getting a long-term deal with Jefferson done.
