Despite not having an agreement on the contract extension he has been seeking, Metellus actively participated in the Vikings&#8217; first training camp practice on Wednesday.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>The dialogue has gone well, so I&#8217;m not too worried about what&#8217;s happening.

In the spring, he was absent from the 7-on-7 drills, which were the most intense periods of the Vikings&#8217; practice plan.\n\nHis approach left open the possibility that he could continue to reduce his participation until the parties reached an agreement on a new contract or a salary increase for 2025, but he said that, in his opinion, it is too close to the start of the season to do so.\n\n&#8220;I did the work, man. In the last two years, I played more than 2,000 plays and that&#8217;s all I have. People can say what they want, for and against, about the type of player I am, but at the end of the day, the tape has no sound,&#8221; concluded Metellus.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Josh Metellus Reports to Vikings Training Camp EAGAN, Minn. \u2013 Minnesota Vikings safety Josh Metellus has decided he won&#8217;t miss any part of the summer training camp, he stated on Wednesday.
