St. Paul Pioneer Press - The details of the new contract are unknown at this time, however it has been cofirmed that Vikings quarterback Daunte Culpepper will get a pay increase on his current 10-year $102 million contract.

"He's a premier player in this league, and we felt like his contract needed an adjustment to reflect that," Vikings vice-president of football operations Rob Brzezinski said. "Zygi stepped up, like he's done with everything else."

Players were unavailable for comment on Sunday, enjoying their first day off since training camp began last week. The Vikings resume practice in Mankato on Monday morning.

"It's a tremendous gesture, without a doubt," Culpepper's agent Mason Ashe said, "that the owner recognizes his leadership and his ability and the fact that he's underpaid." [READ]
