Incredibly blessed and lucky to be able to sign a 3-year extension with the @vikings to keep me here for the next 4 years. I can't thank God, the MN community, my family, @team_ifa and the entire @vikings organization enough! You all have given me so much love and support throughout the years - I know I wouldn't be where I am today without it. The journey is just beginning and the best yet to come. Now, let's get to work and go get Minnesota a Super Bowl! #SKOL
