The three-time Pro Bowler is currently making $4.9 million, which is below market value for his recent production.

The standout pass rusher led the Vikings with 10.5 sacks last season and, on his current contract, is due only $4.9 million for the 2023 campaign. Holding out of minicamp is an attempt to regain negotiation leverage by the three-time Pro Bowler, and it remains to be seen whether he'd threaten to carry over his absence to the regular season.

The defensive lineman is due to make $4.9 million in 2023, which is far below market value for the production he had last season.

The 2015 third-round pick recorded exactly 14.5 sacks in consecutive seasons before sitting out the 2020 campaign due to a neck injury and appearing in only seven games due to a pectoral injury last year.

Hunter (pectoral) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Done for season
Hunter will miss the rest of the season with a torn pectoral muscle.
Analysis: Losing Hunter, who has logged 38 tackles and six sacks in seven games this season, is a big blow to the Vikings' pass rush and overall defense, with the star DE now headed to IR. As a result, D.J. Wonnum is likely to take over Hunter's starting defensive spot opposite Everson Griffen.

Torn pec feared
Hunter may have torn his pectoral muscle during Sunday's loss to the Cowboys, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The results of an MRI will confirm the severity of Hunter's injury, but it currently looks like a season-ending issue is likely. The injury was initially deemed a shoulder issue during Sunday's contest. If the premier pass rusher, who has tallied six sacks through seven appearances this season, is indeed out for the year, it will be a brutal blow for Minnesota's defense.

Leaves with shoulder issue
Hunter is questionable to return to Sunday night's game against the Cowboys with a shoulder injury.

Nabs sack against Browns
Hunter notched seven tackles (five solo) and one sack during Sunday's loss to the Browns.
Analysis: Hunter has five sacks through the first four weeks of the season, solidifying him as a high-end IDP option as per usual. The star defensive end will look to continue his success versus Jared Goff and the Lions in Week 5.

Has sack in return to action
Hunter had six total tackles, a sack, a tackle for a loss and a QB hurry in Sunday's overtime loss at Cincinnati.
Analysis: Hunter played on 60 of the defense's 69 snaps, as he wasn't eased into action after missing all of last season due to neck surgery. Hunter was back to his pre-injury form and looks to have a chance to be among the league leaders in sacks again.

Ready for Week 1
Hunter (neck) has been at full strength this preseason and is set to start at left defensive end Week 1 at Cincinnati, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. "He's stronger, to my knowledge. He looks a little bigger," Vikings left tackle Rashod Hill said. "He's got some moves that I've never seen on the left before."
Analysis: Hunter missed last season after surgery to repair a cervical herniated disc. He fully participated in training camp, and there were not reports of any issues. He amassed more than 70 tackles and 14.5 sacks in each of 2018 and 2019, giving him the upside to finish as the top defensive line IDP if he's back to his prior form.

Takes first-team reps at practice
Hunter (neck) took first-team reps at right and left defensive end in Wednesday's first practice of training camp and didn't appear to be limited, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Analysis: Hunter missed the 2020 season due to a herniated disc that required surgery in October. He didn't participate in spring workouts, but looks back to full speed for training camp. Hunter's return to full health could have a huge impact on the defense as his ability to rush the quarterback (29 sacks across 2018 and 2019) was sorely missed.

Ready for camp
Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer said Wednesday that Hunter (neck) looked "fantastic" after reporting to minicamp and should be ready for training camp, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reports.
Analysis: The 26-year-old quickly joined the team after agreeing to a reworked deal with the Vikings at the start of the week, and he's apparently healthy again after missing the 2020 season due to a herniated disc that required surgery in October. While he didn't participate in minicamp workouts, Hunter's presence in the building along with Zimmer's acknowledgement that the defensive end was "obviously healthy" following a physical suggests that Hunter won't face any restrictions for training camp.…read more

Gets reworked deal
Hunter (neck) agreed to a reworked contract with the Vikings on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: This deal allows Hunter to receive more money on the front end of the contract, and Minnesota expects the defensive end to report to camp following the reworked contract. He hasn't taken the field since 2019 after a herniated disc caused him to miss the entire 2020 campaign.

Absent from this week's practices
Hunter (neck) hasn't been in attendance for OTAs this week, the Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports. "I've spoken to [Hunter] a few times this offseason,'' teammate Anthony Barr said. "He's going about things the way he thinks he needs to and I support him 100 percent. He's a friend and obviously an incredible player, and we'd love to have him whenever he does decide it's time to show up and get back to work."
Analysis: Hunter's status for the 2021 season remains a mystery. He missed last season with herniated disc that ultimately required surgery in October. In March, NFL Network reported that Hunter wanted to be the highest-paid defender in the league or be traded. Hunter has three years left on a deal that averages $14.4 million per year. The Vikings have given out little information on Hunter's injury or recovery, and it's not clear if his current absence is related to his contract situation, given that…read more

Surgery deemed success
Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer confirmed Wednesday that Hunter (neck) underwent successful surgery to repair a herniated disc, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Zimmer noted that while Hunter won't be back this season, "he should be back and playing football again," according to Cronin. Coming off back-to-back 14.5-sack seasons, Hunter ultimately wasn't able to play in 2020 after the neck injury cropped up shortly before the season and proved to be more serious than the Vikings initially believed. He'll hope to make enough progress in his rehab over the next few months to gain full clearance for OTAs or training camp in 2021.

Bound for season-ending surgery
Hunter (neck) will undergo season-ending surgery this week to clean up a herniated disc, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The news of Hunter's procedure comes just hours after the Vikings dealt their other stalwart defensive end, Yannick Ngakoue, to the Ravens. Ngakoue and Hunter were never able to form the fearsome pass-rushing duo the Vikings envisioned, as Hunter was moved to injured reserve shortly before the start of the season due to the neck injury. With the Vikings sitting at 1-5 and Hunter having failed to make much progress in his recovery thus far, the 25-year-old will go under the knife in hopes of…read more

Still not practicing
Hunter (neck) is not present at Thursday's practice, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
Analysis: The Vikings still haven't designated Hunter for a return from IR, so at this point it looks like the star defensive end won't play until after the team's Week 7 bye. A lingering neck injury has prevented Hunter from yet taking the field this season.

Getting second opinion on neck
Hunter (neck) is in New York to get a second opinion on his cervical spine disc herniation, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Hunter remains on IR, but the Vikings continue to hold out hope that his injury isn't season-ending. That said, he definitely won't be suiting up against the Texans in Week 4.

Unlikely for Week 4
Hunter is regaining strength as he recovers from what's believed to be a herniated disc, but the defensive end isn't expected to be activated from injured reserve when first eligible to return for the Vikings' Week 4 matchup with the Texans, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Minnesota isn't viewing the neck issue as a potential season-ending injury for Hunter, but the team likely won't have a clear idea of when he might be ready to play again until he's cleared to practice in some capacity. The Vikings have sorely missed the 25-year-old's presence on the edge, as Minnesota has recorded only two sacks through two games, tied for the third-lowest mark in the league. The lack of a consistent pass rush has left an inexperienced secondary vulnerable, with opposing…read more

GM hopes for quick return
Hunter (neck) worked on a side field with strength coach Mark Uyeyama during the open portion of Thursday's practice, the Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. General Manager Rick Spielman told Sirius XM Radio he's hopeful Hunter will return from injured reserve in three weeks.
Analysis: Hunter can return from IR on Sept. 28, but his injury status remains uncertain. The Vikings have not given details about his injury, as ESPN reported it was a neck injury. It's a good sign he's able to do some work, but it remains unclear if Hunter's injury is a short-term or more serious issue.

Headed to IR
The Vikings placed Hunter on injured reserve Wednesday. He's dealing with a neck injury, ESPN reports.
Analysis: Given the new IR rules in place this season, Hunter could rejoin his team as early as Week 4. Still, his absence for the first three games of 2020 is a major blow for the Vikings defense. Hunter has tallied 14.5 sacks in both of the past two seasons.

Looking iffy for Week 1
Hunter's (undisclosed) status for Sunday's season opener against the Packers is "in doubt," Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Hunter has been held out of practices and scrimmages for nearly three weeks due to an unknown injury. The potential exists for Hunter to practice Wednesday, but it would be in no more than a limited fashion. The Vikings recently brought in Yannick Ngakoue to provide another pass rusher to the defense, but the team may have to wait to deploy the duo until Week 2 or later.

Expected to return to practice
Hunter (undisclosed) is expected to return to practice this week ahead of a Week 1 matchup against Green Bay, head coach Mike Zimmer told Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com.
Analysis: Hunter missed 12 consecutive practices with what head coach Mike Zimmer has called "a little tweak" before returning in a limited capacity (he was just seen stretching) last week. While the Vikings may just be taking a cautious approach with his return, his status for the start of the season remains uncertain.

Analysis: Coach Mike Zimmer said that the team is taking a "cautious" approach to Hunter's recovery from an undisclosed injury. The star defensive end doesn't yet appear in any danger of missing Sept. 13's season opener against the Packers, but his practice status will be worth monitoring.

Hunter (undisclosed) did not participate in Friday's dress rehearsal scrimmage at U.S. Bank Stadium, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Analysis: While head coach Mike Zimmer has said that Hunter is improving, the media has not seen him participating in a practice since early in camp. With two weeks before the team's first game, Hunter's availability for the start of the regular season remains uncertain.

Making progress in recovery
Head coach Mike Zimmer said Hunter (undisclosed) is "getting a little better every day," Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
Analysis: It's still unclear what exactly Hunter is dealing with, and Zimmer added trainer Eric Sugarman will have the final say in when Hunter returns to the field. With three weeks until the Vikings play the Packers in the season opener, Hunter still has plenty of time to get right and avoid missing his first games since 2015. The 25-year-old defensive end recorded 70 tackles and 14.5 sacks over 16 games last season.

Another explosive campaign
Hunter, who recorded 10 tackles and 2.5 sacks over two playoff games, finished the 2019 season with 70 tackles, 14.5 sacks and three forced fumbles over 16 regular-season games.
Analysis: Hunter tied for fourth in the league in 2019 as he generated exactly 14.5 sacks for a second straight season, and his postseason performance was an added bonus. That was enough to get him named to a second straight Pro Bowl. The 25-year-old plays an every-down role as well, as he averaged 56.1 defensive snaps per contest, and he'll continue to do so in 2020 on the second season of his five-year, $72 million contract.
