**[Eric Wilson](https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/W/WilsEr00.htm?utm_medium=linker&utm_source=www.profootballrumors.com&utm_campaign=2026-03-09_pfr)** made his way back to Minnesota after nearly five years away, becoming a starter once again. The veteran linebacker will see that second stint continue.
The Vikings are re-signing Wilson just before free agency, [according to NFL.com’s Mike Garafolo](https://x.com/MikeGarafolo/status/2030857776637833268). Wilson agreed to a three-year, $22.5MM deal that includes $12.5MM guaranteed. The 10th-year NFL veteran had previously returned to the Twin Cities on a one-year, $2.6MM deal. After years on similar deals, Wilson will see the best contract of his career at 31.
