News

  • All-Pro season

    Kendricks, who posted 13 tackles and an interception over two playoff games, finished with 110 tackles, 12 pass breakups and two forced fumbles over 15 regular-season games.

    Analysis: Kendricks capped off his fourth straight season with 100-plus tackles, and he posted a career high in pass breakups. The 27-year-old middle linebacker earned first-team All-Pro honors as a result of his impressive campaign. Kendricks is under contract for four more seasons with an average salary of $10 million per year, which shapes up as a major discount if he keeps up this level of production.

  • Good to go Sunday

    Kendricks (quadriceps) won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's playoff game at New Orleans, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: The 27-year-old began the week not practicing but put in a full practice session Friday to avoid the questionable tag. Kendricks also received first-team All-Pro honors and will take up his usual starting role versus the Saints.

  • Back at practice

    Kendricks (quadriceps) is participating in Thursday's practice, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: Kendricks is nursing a quadriceps injury sustained during Week 16's loss to the Packers. Even if the starting linebacker only managed to practice on a limited basis Thursday, the fact that he's resumed any activity is a notable step in the right direction. His chances of suiting up for Sunday's playoff match against the Saints could come down to what he's able, or unable, to do in Friday's practice session.

  • Trending in wrong direction

    Kendricks (quadriceps) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Chris Tomasson of the Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: This is more negative news for the linebacker, who hasn't practiced or played since suffering the injury in Week 16's loss to Green Bay. Kendricks likely will need to log at least limited practice this week if he wants a chance to play in the Wild Card game against the Saints on Sunday. If he can't go, however, Kentrell Brothers and Eric Wilson would be in line to see an increase in snaps.

  • Won't face Bears

    Kendricks (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Chicago, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    Analysis: Kendricks suffered a quad injury during the first quarter of Week 16's loss to the Packers, and he'll miss Sunday's regular-season finale while working to recover. The star linebacker will target a return to the field in the postseason.

  • Listed as DNP

    Kendricks (quadriceps) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report.

    Analysis: Kendricks went down with a quad injury during Monday night's loss to Green Bay. It's no surprise that he was thought to have been a DNP during the first practice of a short week, especially after head coach Mike Zimmer said Tuesday that Kendricks underwent an MRI on Tuesday, per Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press. There seems to be a good chance the linebacker won't be able to play this weekend against Chicago, but Kendricks at least has a couple more days to return to the practice…read more

  • Out with quad injury

    Kendricks suffered a quad injury Monday night against the Packers and will not return, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: A significant loss for the Vikings defense, as Kendricks exits the contest with two fumble recoveries. Look for more updates on the linebacker's status to come when the team resumes practice later this week. For the remainder of Monday's contest, look for Kentrell Brothers and Eric Wilson to see increased defensive snaps.

  • Picks up injury

    Kendricks (quadriceps) is questionable to return to Monday's game against Green Bay.

    Analysis: Kendricks recovered a Davante Adams fumble in the second quarter and came up limping in the process. The veteran was seen without his helmet on the sidelines, which is certainly a negative sign for his chances to return. As long as Kendricks is sidelined, look for Kentrell Brothers and Eric Wilson to be the likely beneficiaries to see an uptick in snaps.

  • Forces fumble in win

    Kendricks logged seven tackles (five solo) and forced a fumble in Sunday's win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: Kendricks has made seven tackles in back-to-back games. He has no fewer than six in any game this year and needs just four to break his career high of 113.

  • Tallies seven tackles in win

    Kendricks logged seven tackles (six solo) in Sunday's win over the Lions.

    Analysis: Kendricks has at least six tackles in every game this season but hasn't made many big plays. While he is just 10 tackles short of his career-high 113, he has no interceptions and just half a sack on the year.

  • Records 10 tackles

    Kendricks piled up 10 tackles (four solo) in Monday's loss to the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Kendricks reached double-digit tackles for the fourth time this year. The middle linebacker is currently on pace for 128 tackles, comfortably the highest total on the Vikings' defense, and has proven to be a fairly consistent performer week in and week out. He will look to keep it rolling against the Lions in Week 14.

  • Tallies 12 tackles

    Kendricks had 12 tackles (six solo) and two passes defensed during Sunday's win over the Lions.

    Analysis: Kendricks has now reached double-digit tackles in three of the last four games and also has three straight games with two pass breakups. The 27-year-old has been a dependable IDP option with 61 tackles (44 solo), a half-sack and a forced fumble through seven games.

  • Ten total tackles Sunday

    Kendricks had 10 total tackles, 0.5 sacks, 1.5 tackles for a loss, a QB hit and had two passes defensed in Sunday's win over Philadelphia.

    Analysis: Kendricks has been averaging slightly more tackles this year (8.2 per game compared to 7.7 last season), while rating well in pass coverage. He's never been a big contributor in the pass rush despite Sunday's output, however, with one sack each of the last two seasons.

  • Leads game in tackles Sunday

    Kendricks recorded a game-high 12 total tackles (eight solo) in Sunday's loss to Chicago.

    Analysis: Kendricks was present for all 72 of the defense's snaps and even saw the field for five snaps on special teams. The 27-year-old has been solid for Minnesota so far this season, racking up 33 total tackles and three pass breakups over the first four games.

  • Six tackles Sunday

    Kendricks had six total tackles, defended two passes and had a quarterback hit in Sunday's win over Atlanta.

    Analysis: He played on 68 of the defense's 74 snaps, as some of the starters got rest late in a blowout win. He'll be a good source of tackles again as the starting middle linebacker who stays on the field in passing situations.

  • Participates in offseason program

    Kendricks (hamstring) participated in Minnesota's June minicamp, Eric Smith of the Vikings' official site reports.

    Analysis: Kendricks sustained a hamstring injury Week 15 against Miami and was forced to sit out the final two games of the season. Regardless, the 27-year-old was still able to pile up 108 total tackles, seven pass breakups, two interceptions and a forced fumble in 2018.

  • Restructures contract

    Kendricks (hamstring) restructured his contract Tuesday to make room for the signing of first-round pick Garrett Bradbury, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: Kendricks just signed a five-year, $50 million contract with the Vikings last season, but experiencing a tight squeeze when it comes to cap space, the Vikings had to do some re-working of money. Kendricks' contract is now likely back-loaded as a result.

  • Eclipses 100 tackles

    Kendricks (hamstring) finished the 2018 season with 108 tackles (63 solo), two interceptions, one sack and a forced fumble in 14 games.

    Analysis: Kendricks suffered the hamstring injury Week 15 against the Dolphins and was sidelined for the final two games of the year. The 26-year-old led the Vikings in combined tackles, though Harrison Smith led the way in the solo category with 67. Kendricks signed a five-year, $50 million extension with the Vikings in April, and he could be relied upon even more heavily in 2019 with Anthony Barr currently set to become a free agent.

  • Will sit season finale

    Kendricks (hamstring) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bears.

    Analysis: Kendricks will miss his second straight game due to a lingering hamstring injury. In the fourth-year linebacker's absence, the Bears could have an easier time running the ball. Expect Eric Wilson to draw the start at middle linebacker as long as Kendricks remains sidelined.

  • Absent from practice

    Kendricks (hamstring) did not practice Thursday, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: Kendricks sat out last week's win over the Lions due to a hamstring issue and has yet to return to practice. If Kendricks were to miss Sunday's divisional tilt against the Bears, Kentrell Brothers, Ben Gedeon, Eric Wilson and/or Devante Downs would once again benefit from increased defensive roles.

  • Ruled out with hammy issue

    Kendricks (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Detroit, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Kendricks has played 97.7 percent of Minnesota's defensive snaps this season and easily leads the team with 108 tackles. Kentrell Brothers is next up on the depth chart at middle linebacker, but he won't necessarily replace Kendricks in an every-down role, as the VIkings may also allot more snaps for Ben Gedeon, Eric Wilson and/or Devante Downs. The Detroit backfield may have a slightly easier time with Kendricks unavailable, but this is still a difficult matchup for a struggling offense.

  • Absent from Wednesday's practice

    Kendricks (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Kendricks appears to be nursing a knee injury sustained during Sunday's win over the Dolphins. The 26-year-old donned a wrap around his right knee Wednesday, according to Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com, and was the only Viking to not participate in practice. If Kendricks is unable to play against the Lions in Week 16, Devante Downs would benefit from increased defensive snaps.

  • Tallies first sack

    Kendricks had six tackles (three solo) and a sack in Sunday's win over the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Kendricks also added a pass breakup, but the six tackles represents his lowest total since Week 7 against the Jets. The 26-year-old is nearing a career-high in tackles (108 combined) and has two interceptions this season to double his career total to four.

  • Nabs second interception

    Kendricks had seven tackles (three solo) and an interception in Monday's loss to the Seahawks.

    Analysis: After going through the first 11 games without an interception, Kendricks now has an interception in two consecutive games. The 26-year-old is poised to set career high as he has 102 tackles (60 solo) through 13 games, after posting 113 total tackles in 2017.

  • Set to face Seattle

    Kendricks (ribs) is active for tonight's game against the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Though he was always expected to play, Kendricks was listed as questionable heading into Monday's matchup after injuring his ribs last week. His availability means he didn't suffer a setback, and he will assume his regular role as Minnesota's starting middle linebacker.

  • Listed as questionable

    Kendricks (ribs) is listed as questionable for Monday's contest against the Seahawks.

    Analysis: The prevailing sentiment seems to be that Kendricks will indeed play, but fantasy owners may want to be cautious given we likely won't know the 26-year-old's status until closer to Monday night kickoff. Devante Downs and Ben Gedeon would likely step in at middle linebacker on the off chance Kendricks misses any time.

  • No practice Friday

    Kendricks (ribs) did not practice Friday, Ben Goessling of the Star Tribune reports.

    Analysis: Kendricks has yet to participate in practice this week despite optimism that he'll be ready to play Monday at Seattle. The 26-year-old's Week 14 availability will likely be contingent on the extent of his participation in Saturday's practice session.

  • Hopeful for Monday

    Kendricks (ribs) is expected to play Monday against the Seahawks, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: Kendricks was a non-participant at practice Thursday but is apparently still on track to play Monday at Seattle. Friday and Saturday's practice sessions should provide additional clarification, and unless the 26-year-old is unable to retake the practice field, his positive outlook seems unlikely to change.

  • Busy day in New England

    Kendricks recorded 16 tackles (eight solo), an interception and a pass defensed in Sunday's loss to the Patriots.

    Analysis: Kendricks recorded a career-high in tackles and secured his first interception of the season Sunday. He is now on pace for 124 tackles, which would mark a new career high.

  • Posts 12 tackles in loss

    Kendricks logged 12 tackles (all solo) during Sunday's 25-20 loss to the Bears.

    Analysis: Kendricks recorded his highest single-game tackle total of the season during Sunday's loss, and he especially excelled in run-blocking situations. The linebacker more than made up for his occasional errors in pass coverage, and he'll continue to see usage as a three-down piece of Minnesota's defense. Kendricks will look to log another impressive performance against the Packers in Week 12.
