Vikings open to trading unhappy Danielle Hunter
The Vikings have made former Pro Bowl defensive end Danielle Hunter available in a trade, sources told ESPN, as the two sides have been unable to agree on a new contract.

Hunter does not want to play on his $4.9 million base salary for this season, so the Vikings have tried to find creative solutions should they fail to reach a new deal with him. Hunter, 28, skipped organized team activities and mandatory minicamp and is not practicing during training camp after missing the offseason program.
Hunter is in the final season of a five-year, $70 million extension. His salary is low this year because of a reworked deal two offseasons ago. He returned last season after two years of injuries and recorded 10.5 sacks, even after transitioning from a 4-3 defensive end to a 3-4 outside linebacker.
