        Andrew Van Ginkel Out vs. Steelers

        Andrew Van Ginkel Out vs. Steelers

        The Vikings have ruled Edge Andrew Van Ginkel out for Sunday's game against the Steelers because of a neck injury. Van Ginkel missed Week 2 with a concussion, returned for Sunday's win over the Bengals, but made it through just eight snaps before leaving that one for good. He didn't practice at all this week but did some work on the side Friday.

        Vikings Edge Andrew Van Ginkel (concussion) and S Harrison Smith (illness) are active for today's game against the Bengals. Van Ginkel should return to normal IDP usage after missing just one game. Smith's likely to get eased back in after an extended recovery from an unspecified summer illness. He shouldn't be in your Week 3 lineups.

        Vikings Edge Andrew Van Ginkel and S Harrison Smith are questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals. Van Ginkel got back to full practice participation Friday after missing last week with his concussion. That makes him seem likely to return for this game. Smith remained limited all week coming off his summer illness. We'll see about his status Sunday, but the safety won't be a good bet for IDP lineups when he takes the field for the first time.
