Keep Your Eye Out for a Cam Bynum Contract Extension with Vikings
Current Minnesota Vikings’ safety Cam Bynum was selected by former general manager Rick Spielman in the fourth-round of the 2021 NFL Draft at pick No. 125. Bynum didn’t play a whole lot in his rookie season, only logging a total of 211 snaps on defense, but on the limited snaps he did play he showed some potential.

Bynum became a full time starter in 2022 after beating out first-round draft pick Lewis Cine who’s struggled to grasp play calling. Since then, he’s continued to flourish on defense and has proven he’s a quality starter in the secondary.


Contract extension for Vikings’ Cam Bynum before season opener?
On the latest episode of Minnesota Vikings Scoops, Darren Wolfson (KSTP, SKOR North) stated that the Vikings and Bynum have mutual interest on getting a contract extension done this offseason. Wolfson specifically noted a timeline of either right before training camp, which is at the end of July, or right before the season opener against the New York Giants.
Cam Bynum’s outlook with the Vikings?
It seems more than likely that the Vikings and Bynum will reach an agreement at some point in the near future regarding a contract extension. Although the safety room seems deep at this moment, this could potentially be Harrison Smith’s final season before he retires.
