Oct 2013

Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Josh Freeman is signing with the Minnesota Vikings.

Freeman's agent, Erik Burkhardt, made a one-word announcement on Twitter before confirming his client's decision to The Associated Press.

The Vikings gave Freeman a one-year deal worth about $3 million, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

All totaled, Freeman will make more than $11.4 million until he becomes a free agent this winter, factoring in the $2.479 million the Bucs paid him at the start of the season, the $5.9 million in termination pay from the team, and his new deal with Minnesota.
