Minnesota Vikings cornerback Camryn Bynum has one more year left on his current deal, as he’s going to earn just a little over $3.1 million in the 2024 NFL season before he becomes an unrestricted free agent in 2025.
Minnesota Vikings Defensive Back Camryn Bynum Shares Thoughts on Looking For a New Deal
Obviously, one of his chief goals is to secure a bag either via an extension deal with the Vikings or in the next NFL free agency. Either way, Bynum doesn’t seem to be sweating it a lot, as he prefers to take control of things he can.
“You look at it for sure and you get excited about it, Bynum said during a recent interview on the NFL Network. “But all I can do is play football, all I can do is prepare for the season,” added Bynum – a bright spot for Minnesota’s defense that ranked just 24th in 2023 in terms of passing yards allowed and just 22nd in defensive interception rate.

Bynum, who was taken in the second round (125th overall) by the Vikings in the 2021 NFL Draft, is coming off a solid year for Minnesota in the 2023 campaign.
That season, Bynum, a California Golden Bears product, posted two interceptions, nine passes defended, and 137 combined tackles through 17 games (all starts). Bynum recorded both of those interceptions during a clutch performance in a memorable Week 7 22-17 home win over the San Francisco 49ers. Pro Football Focus gave Bynum a 73.2 overall rating for his body of work in 2023 with a 79.1 run defense and 69.7 coverage grades.
