Report: Teams calling Vikings about trading for Hunter

Teams around the league have been calling the Minnesota Vikings about trading for edge-rusher Danielle Hunter, sources told Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

Hunter is likely to be moved before the trade deadline on Oct. 31, Rapoport adds.

The 28-year-old signed a one-year, $20-million deal with Minnesota during the offseason that includes a no-tag clause. He is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent in 2024.

Minnesota was fielding calls on Hunter in the offseason before the LSU product signed a deal.

Hunter is off to a terrific start this campaign, racking up 32 tackles with a league-leading eight sacks and 11 tackles for loss.

The Vikings are 2-4 heading into their Monday night matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.
