    The Minnesota Vikings have agreed to an extension with tight end Kyle Rudolph, the team announced in a statement.

    The contract is a five-year deal worth a minimum of $36.5 million, and could be worth up to $40 million, according to a league source.

    Rudolph is guaranteed $19.4 million in the new deal. He'll receive a $6.5 million signing bonus and a $960,000 guaranteed base salary this season, while the remaining $12 million of the guarantees are for injury only.

    "I'm extremely excited to get this extension completed and continue my career with the Minnesota Vikings," Rudolph said in a statement. "I've said all along I wanted to stay in Minnesota. I love the fans, the community and, most importantly, I'm excited about where this team is going. I'm looking forward to the 2014 season and helping this organization reach our ultimate goal."
