Totals 14.5 sacks
Hunter had 72 tackles (51 solo),14.5 sacks and returned a fumble for a touchdown in 16 games during 2018.
Analysis: Hunter set a career high in tackles and hasn't missed a game since his rookie season in 2014. The 24-year-old's sack total tied for fourth in the NFL, trailing only the likes of Aaron Donald, J.J. Watt and Chris Jones. The Vikings signed the 2015 third-round pick to a five-year, $72 million extension over the summer, and he rewarded them with the best season of his career.

Breaks sack drought
Hunter had three tackles (two solo) and a sack in Monday's loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: Hunter last registered a sack when he exploded for 3.5 sacks Week 9 against the Lions and he's now tied for third in the league with 12.5. If the 24-year-old gets another sack this season, it will set a career high. The Vikings will take on the Dolphins in Week 15.

Monster day rushing passer
Hunter had 3.5 sacks, four QB hits, nine total tackles and returned a fumble for a touchdown in Sunday's win at Detroit.
Analysis: Hunter leads the NFL with 11.5 sacks and is just one sack short of his career high (12.5 in 2016). With Everson Griffen back to full strength (1.5 sacks Sunday), Hunter and Minnesota's pass rush look back to full gear for the second half of the season.

Logs eighth sack
Hunter recorded four tackles (one solo), including a sack, in Sunday's win over the Jets.
Analysis: Hunter has recorded a sack or more in each of the Vikings' first seven games and is tied for the league lead in the category. He's already improved upon the seven sacks he registered in 2017 and appears on his way to a career year. Looking ahead, Hunter and the Vikings will face off against the Saints in Week 8.

Absent from injury report
Hunter (groin) is not on Friday's injury report, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
Analysis: Coach Mike Zimmer said that Hunter's lack of practice Thursday was "part of the plan," so it appears that the starting defensive end's Week 7 availability was never in question. Hunter will suit up against a Jets O-line which has struggled against the pass rush.

Not practicing Thursday
Hunter (groin) was a non-participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Hunter was a surprise addition to Thursday's injury report, popping up with a groin injury of undisclosed severity. It remains to be seen whether the defensive end will suit up for Sunday's game against the Jets, but expect an update on Hunter's health if he is unable to return to practice as the week continues.

Posts two sacks Sunday
Hunter recorded five tackles (three solo), including two sacks, in Sunday's win over Arizona.
Analysis: Hunter recorded two sacks for the first time this season and is now up to seven on the year, tying his total for all of last season. He's tied for the NFL lead in sacks and has recorded at least one in all six games. He's proving to be one of the best defensive linemen in the NFL and a top IDP option. He'll aim to continue taking down the quarterback in Week 7 against the Jets.

Earns fifth sack

Analysis: Make that five games in a row with a sack for Hunter, who's been able to take down the quarterback in every game this season. He's well on his way to besting his sack total (7.5) from 2017 and has become as reliable as ever in IDP leagues.

Gets fourth sack
Hunter had six tackles, a sack and a tackle for a loss in Thursday's loss at the Rams. The sack was his fourth of the season.

Five tackles and sack
Hunter recorded five tackles (all solo), including a sack in Sunday's loss to Buffalo.
Analysis: Hunter now has three sacks in as many weeks, and he's well on his way to meeting or exceeding his 7.0 sacks from a year ago. He'll look to maintain his strong, consistent play in Week 4 when the Vikings head to Los Angeles to take on the Rams.

Secures another sack Week 2

Analysis: Hunter has now racked up 2.0 sacks in the first two weeks of the season, putting him well on his way to equaling or improving on the 7.0 sacks he posted in 2017. He'll have a chance to continue his string of strong performances against the struggling Bills in Week 3.

Four tackles and sack in opener
Hunter recorded four tackles, including a sack, in Sunday's 24-16 win over the 49ers in Week 1.
Analysis: Hunter signed a lucrative contract extension with the Vikings in the offseason and showed his worth early on in Sunday's tilt. He's wracked up 6.0 or more sacks in each of his first three seasons, and he's well on his way to another strong season in 2018. The quality of the Vikings defense overall gives Hunter plenty of one-on-one matchups and makes him a playable IDP in many formats.

Hunter agreed Wednesday with the Vikings on a five-year, $72 million contract extension that includes $40 million guaranteed, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Hunter has piled up 25.5 sacks in 46 games since the Vikings selected him in the third round of the 2015 NFL Draft. He dropped off from 12.5 sacks in 2016 to seven in 2017, but he was still an integral part of an excellent Minnesota defense, with Pro Football Focus grading him as the 17th-best edge defender against the run. With Hunter and Everson Griffen joined by Linval Joseph and Sheldon Richardson at tackle, the Vikings have a top-five defensive line. Hunter will turn 24 years old in…read more

Hunter finished the 2017 with 47 combined tackles, seven sacks and one forced fumble.
Analysis: Hunter saw a slight downtick in production following a tremendous 2016 season in which he recorded 12.5 sacks. However, the talented defensive end was still a vital element of a Minnesota defense that ranked first in both total and scoring defense this season, and his presence opposite Everson Griffen makes the Vikings front four one of the most dominant in the NFL. Hunter is also only 23 years old, meaning he still has potential to grow as a pass-rusher.

Hunter had three tackles (one solo) and one sack Sunday against the Bengals.
Analysis: Hunter now has 38 tackles and seven sacks through 14 games, a regression from the 56 tackles and 12.5 sacks he posted in a full 2016 season. However, he should have a good chance to take down Packers QB Brett Hundley in Week 16, since he's being protected by an injury-riddled offensive line.

Hunter had one solo tackle and one sack in Thursday's 30-23 win over the Lions.
Analysis: Hunter now has a sack in each of his last three games, and four of his last five. However, the third-year pro only has 28 tackles (15 solo) through 11 games, making him lean heavily on a sack count that just started to gain some consistency. Against questionable offensive lines, though, Hunter is a solid IDP asset.

Analysis: Hunter's sack total on the season is now up to five total. All in all, the 23-year-old recorded three tackles (one solo) on 37 snaps (63.0 percent snaps) to go along with his quarterback takedown. He will look to continue his sack streak on a short week Thursday versus the Lions.
