March 11, 2024
Van Ginkel (foot) agreed Monday with the Vikings on a two-year, $20 million contract, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Van Ginkel saw extra opportunities in 2023 and was able to record a career-high six sacks among 69 total tackles along with eight passes defensed, 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. Van Ginkel was sidelined for Miami's playoff loss to the Chiefs in the divisional round due to a foot injury, but he could be available for OTAs.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
May have better chance of return
LBMiami Dolphins
February 23, 2024
Van Ginkel, a pending unrestricted free agent, may have a better chance of being re-signed by the Dolphins in the wake of the team's release of Emmanuel Ogbah on Friday, as reported by Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.
ANALYSIS
Van Ginkel has now fully played out the four-year deal he inked as a fifth-round rookie in 2019, plus a one-contract he signed last offseason. The linebacker, who recorded 69 tackles, including a career-high six sacks, during his third straight 17-game season in 2023, figures to garner a solid amount of interest if he hits the open market. However, with Ogbah's release both creating nearly $14 million in cap room and lightening the positional depth chart, Van Ginkel's chances of being brought back to Miami have ostensibly risen.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
