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.
We'll see how long this keeps Van Ginkel out. That he didn't land on IR this week seems encouraging (as long as such a move doesn't still come before the game).
Of course, Van Ginkel notched 2 sacks among his mere eight snaps in that Cincinnati game, displaying his worth to the Minnesota defense. Missing him will hurt ... even if it didn't after he left that game.
Second-year Edge Dallas Turner went from 43% playing time in the opener to 91% in the game Van Ginkel missed and then 61% last week. He got a boost in our Week 4 DL rankings after the Van Ginkel news.
And the Minnesota D remains an upside play against Pittsburgh. You can find the Vikings inside the top 10 of our DST rankings.
That defense will include DT Javon Hargrave. The veteran sat out the week's first practice with a chest issue but returned to a limited Thursday workout and then participated fully Friday. He's off the final injury report.
