Van Ginkel (foot) agreed Monday with the Vikings on a two-year, $20 million contract,
Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSISVan 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.
