2025 Fantasy Outlook
Van Ginkel inked a sizable one-year, $23 million extension with Minnesota after his tremendous debut campaign with the team. Across 17 regular-season appearances in 2024, Van Ginkel racked up 79 tackles, including a career-high 11.5 sacks, and six pass breakups, including two INTs, both of which were pick-sixes. He also had one forced fumble. Defensive coordinator Brian Flores' scheme is a perfect fit for Van Ginkel's playmaking abilities, and he figures to repeat as one of the league's most disruptive linebackers in 2025.

Green light to play vs. Cincy
Van Ginkel (concussion) is active for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
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. He was a full participant in Friday's practice, and he has done enough to clear the league's five-step concussion protocol and return to action Sunday.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2021
Van Ginkel recorded a career-high six sacks among 69 total tackles along with eight passes defensed, including an interception last season in Miami. He should step right into a starting role on the strong side of Minnesota's linebacker corps after signing a two-year, $20 million contract. He'll be counted on as an impact edge rusher but could face competition for snaps from first-round pick Dallas Turner.
