Picks off pass in Week 14 rout
Van Ginkel notched four tackles (one solo) and two defensed passes, including an interception, in Sunday's 31-0 victory versus the Commanders.
Analysis: Van Ginkel's biggest play came in the third quarter, when he intercepted a pass intended for Terry McLaurin and returned it 40 yards to set up a Minnesota field goal. That was Van Ginkel's first pickoff of the campaign and fifth of his career, all of which have come over the past four seasons. The veteran linebacker's sack count has been down a bit this year -- he has 4.0 through eight games -- but he's also contributed seven defensed passes, one shy of his career-best regular-season mark.

Sacks Williams in Week 11
Van Ginkel recorded eight total tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Bears.
Analysis: The Wisconsin product was one of two Vikings to get after the quarterback in the Week 11 loss, bringing down Caleb Williams at the start of the fourth quarter. Van Ginkel has played in just five games this season due to a lingering neck issue, recording 22 total tackles, including 3.0 sacks, and four passes defended over 223 defensive snaps. He's expected to continue causing problems for opposing offensive linemen in the Week 12 matchup against the Packers.

Van Ginkel (neck) was listed as a limited participant on the Vikings' estimated practice report Monday, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports.

With Minnesota operating on a short week, the 2019 fifth-rounder will have less time to progress in his recovery ahead of Thursday's game against the Chargers.

Out for Sunday
Van Ginkel (neck) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Browns.
Analysis: The Wisconsin product didn't practice all week after missing the Vikings' Week 4 loss to the Steelers due to a neck issue, so his absence Sunday comes as no surprise. Van Ginkel is a crucial part of Minnesota's defense, recording 79 total tackles, including 11.5 sacks, and six passes defended across 17 regular-season games in 2024. With the veteran edge rusher out, Dallas Turner is likely to start opposite Jonathan Greenard in Week 5.

Won't practice ahead of Week 5
Head coach Kevin O'Connell said Tuesday that Van Ginkel (neck) won't practice this week, Craig Peters of the Vikings' official site reports.
Analysis: With that in mind, Van Ginkel is safe to rule out for the Vikings' Week 5 tilt against the Browns on Sunday in London. The 2019 fifth-round pick has been limited to just two appearances thus far, and he played just eight defensive snaps during the Vikings' Week 3 win over the Bengals before exiting with the neck injury. The Vikings are on a bye Week 6, so the additional rest puts Van Ginkel in a spot to return for Minnesota's Week 7 clash against Philadelphia on Oct. 19. Dallas Turner played…read more

Van Ginkel (neck) did not participate in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Van Ginkel has opened the week with back-to-back DNPs due to a neck injury that likely flared up during the Vikings' Week 3 win over the Bengals. Van Ginkel appears unlikely to play against the Steelers on Sunday in Dublin, Ireland unless he's able to practice in at least a limited capacity Friday.

Nursing neck injury
Van Ginkel did not participate in Wednesday's practice due to a neck injury, Emily Leiker of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.
Analysis: Van Ginkel cleared the league's concussion protocol ahead of the Vikings' 48-10 win over the Bengals on Sunday, when he logged 2.0 sacks. He played just eight defensive snaps, and that lack of playing time seems to have stemmed more from a neck injury that he picked up during the game rather than the score. Van Ginkel will have two more chances to practice in at least a limited capacity heading into the Vikings' Week 4 clash against the Steelers in Dublin.

Analysis: Van Ginkel entered the league's concussion protocol following the Vikings' Week 1 win over the Bears, which prevented him from playing against the Falcons in Week 2.

Analysis: Van Ginkel suffered a concussion in Minnesota's Week 1 win over the Bears and was sidelined for the team's Week 2 loss to the Eagles. He took part in practices throughout Week 3, turning in limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday before upgrading to full participation Friday.

Missing Week 2
Van Ginkel (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Falcons, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Van Ginkel has yet to practice this week after being placed in concussion protocol Wednesday, so it's no surprise he'll be sidelined in Week 2. The All-Pro edge rusher was impactful in the Vikings' Week 1 win over the Bears, recording five total tackles and two passes defended across 58 defensive snaps. With the Wisconsin product sidelined, 2024 first-round pick Dallas Turner projects to start opposite Jonathan Greenard on Sunday.

DNP on Thursday
Van Ginkel (concussion) did not practice Thursday.
Analysis: Van Ginkel remains in the league's concussion protocol and has registered back-to-back DNPs to begin the week, putting his status in doubt for Sunday night's date with the Falcons. Van Ginkel played 91 percent of the defensive snaps in last Monday night's Week 1 win over the Bears, logging five tackles (three solo) and a pair of pass breakups. If Van Ginkel is unable to go in Week 2, Dallas Turner would be in line for increased playing time opposite Jonathan Greenard.

In concussion protocol

Analysis: Van Ginkel will need to gain full clearance from the concussion protocol before being cleared to suit up for a game, making his status for Sunday night's home matchup against the Falcons murky. The veteran linebacker was productive during Monday's 27-24 win over the Bears, recording five tackles (three solo), including one for a loss, plus two defensed passes. Dallas Turner will be the primary beneficiary of increased snaps if Van Ginkel misses any time.

Van Ginkel accrued four tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, and returned an interception for a touchdown in the Vikings' Week 1 victory over the Giants.

Dealing with foot injury
Van Ginkel (foot) didn't practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Van Ginkel was all over the field during his Vikings debut in Week 1, but it now appears he could be in jeopardy of missing time due to a foot injury. The Wisconsin product's practice participation Thursday and Friday will provide a better indication of whether Van Ginkel will be able to suit up in Week 2. If he remains hindered by this foot issue throughout the week, expect 2024 first-round pick Dallas Turner to see increased work with the Vikings' first-team defense.

Van Ginkel logged four tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, and returned an interception for a touchdown during Minnesota's 28-6 win over the Giants on Sunday.
Analysis: Van Ginkel was dominant in his debut with the Vikings as he scored his third career touchdown. The 29-year-old has now recorded an interception in three straight seasons, and he'll look to build off this strong performance next week versus the 49ers.

Returns to practice
Van Ginkel (foot) participated in 11-on-11 practice Saturday for the first time during training camp, Will Ragatz of Sports Illustrated reports.
Analysis: Van Ginkel sustained a foot injury during the Dolphins' regular-season finale last season that held him out of the team's playoff loss to the Chiefs. It looks like he's on pace to be ready for the start of the regular season. He signed a two-year, $20 million deal with the Vikings after the season and is expected to serve as one of the team's top edge rushers.

Van Ginkel (foot) is "close" to participating fully in training camp, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Van Ginkel sustained a foot injury during the Dolphins' regular-season finale that held him out of the team's playoff loss to the Chiefs, but it now seems as if he's nearing a return to the field.

Changing squads
Van Ginkel (foot) is slated to sign a two-year, $20 million contract with the Vikings on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Van Ginkel saw extra opportunities in 2023 and was able to record a career-high 6.0 sacks among 69 total tackles along with eight passes defended, including an interception. He should step right into a starting role on the strong side of Minnesota's linebacker corps, while D.J. Wonnum (quadriceps) will likely move into a depth role.

Analysis: It's still not clear whether or not Van Ginkel will need to undergo surgery to address his foot injury. With Jaelan Phillips (Achilles) and Bradley Chubb (knee) both also out for the rest of the year, Melvin Ingram is the next man up on the edge for the Dolphins.

Outstanding in win over Cowboys
Van Ginkel tallied 10 tackles (seven solo), including 1.5 sacks, and one pass breakup during Sunday's 22-20 victory over Dallas.
Analysis: Van Ginkel had his first double-digit tackling day of the season, bringing his sack total to six across 15 appearances while playing a key role in Sunday's win. That's already a career-high mark in terms of sacks, and Van Ginkel needs just six more tackles to tie his previous best of 71. He'll have one such opportunity at Baltimore in Week 17.

Questionable for Sunday
Van Ginkel (oblique) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets.
Analysis: Van Ginkel was a limited participant in all three practices this week and has a chance to play Sunday. The 2019 fifth-round pick has 51 tackles (31 solo), including 4.0 sacks, one fumble recovery and an interception return for a touchdown over 13 games this season.

Scores pick-six at Washington
Van Ginkel recorded five tackles (four solo) and an interception that he returned for a touchdown in Sunday's 45-15 win at Washington.
Analysis: Late in the first quarter, Van Ginkel read a screen pass drawn up for Jahan Dotson like a book, caught the ball himself and took it back close to 30 yards in the other direction for a touchdown, extending the Dolphins' lead to 17-0. He's on pace for a career season in the sack department, but playing opposite Bradley Chubb means there normally aren't enough sacks to go around for Van Ginkel to be a consistent IDP option.

Analysis: Van Ginkel popped up on the injury report after missing Thursday's practice. However, he logged a full workload Friday, so it looks like he has moved past the issue. Barring any setbacks, he is expected to take on his usual workload at linebacker.

Tallies sack No. 4
Van Ginkel racked up three solo tackles, one sack and one pass defensed during Sunday's 31-16 win over the Giants.
Analysis: Van Ginkel made an impact all over the field in Miami's decisive Week 5 victory, again rewarding fantasy managers who trusted him in IDP formats. It's worth noting that Van Ginkel's fantasy success has been reliant on pass-rush efficiency that may not be sustainable, but he will have a prime opportunity to keep up his momentum Week 6 against Carolina.

Notches two sacks
Van Ginkel logged five tackles (four solo), including two sacks, during the Dolphins' 48-20 loss to the Bills on Sunday.
Analysis: Van Ginkel saw increased playing time with Jaelan Phillips (oblique) sidelined and had his most productive outing of the season despite the blowout loss. If Phillips is forced to miss another game, the 28-year-old could be in line for a bigger role once again.

Analysis: First-rounder Jaelan Phillips (oblique) has been ruled out of Sunday's game at the Bills, and Van Ginkel figures to be the next man up at outside linebacker opposite Bradley Chubb.

The Dolphins are re-signing Van Ginkel on Tuesday, Alain Poupart of SI.com reports.
Analysis: Van Ginkel has played every regular-season game for Miami in three straight seasons, while handling roles on both defense and special teams. It makes sense for the Dolphins to prioritize retaining such a reliable, versatile veteran, though for fantasy purposes he doesn't carry much value outside of deep IDP formats.

Analysis: Van Ginkel had his appendix removed at the end of August and was able to log limited practices Wednesday through Friday. However, his status for Week 1 remains in doubt.

Wraps up moderate breakout campaign
Van Ginkel had 48 tackles (29 solo), 5.5 sacks, four defended passes, three forced fumbles and one fumble that he recovered for a touchdown across 16 games in 2020.
Analysis: Van Ginkel spent most of his rookie season in 2019 dealing with a foot injury, ultimately only suiting up for six contests, but he emerged as a consistent contributor on defense while playing a full 16-game slate in 2020. The second-year pro usually lingered around 50 percent of defensive snaps per game, though he jumped into a starting role (80-plus percent of snaps) during the final four games of the regular season.

Remains in concussion protocol
Coach Brian Flores said Monday that Van Ginkel is making progress but remains in concussion protocol, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: Van Ginkel still has plenty of time to clear the league's protocol and return to the lineup this Sunday against the Rams. If he's able to get back in the fold, his role will depend on whether Kyle Van Noy (groin) does the same. If Van Noy misses another week, Van Ginkel could start Sunday, but the second-year linebacker out of Wisconsin is in line for a decent workload either way.

Shows promise in rookie season
Van Ginkel accumulated 15 tackles (11 solo), one sack and one fumble recovery across six regular-season games in 2019.
Analysis: The rookie fifth-round pick began the season on injured reserve due to a foot issue. His role on defense ramped up upon his return to the field Week 12, culminating in a six-tackle performance during the season finale against New England, in which Van Ginkel handled 98 percent of snaps on defense.
