Josh Metellus, key safety for the Minnesota Vikings, opted to fully participate in training camp despite seeking a contract extension. He previously sat out spring 7-on-7 drills but deemed it important to be present for his team and lead as a captain. Metellus signed a three-year contract that is set to expire at the end of the season. He emphasized his dedication, citing his extensive playing time as evidence of his capabilities, dismissing outside opinions as irrelevant compared to his performance on the field.
Metellus said, "The dialogue's been going good, so I am not too worried about what's going on. I'm just doing my part, being here for the team, trying to be a leader, a captain, and I can't do that on the sideline."
Metellus expressed, "I did the work, man. The past two years, I played 2,000-plus snaps and that's all I got to go on. People can say whatever they want, up and down, about the kind of player I am, but at the end of the day, the tape don't have no sound."
