2024 Fantasy Outlook
Van Ginkel recorded a career-high six sacks among 69 total tackles along with eight passes defensed, including an interception last season in Miami. He should step right into a starting role on the strong side of Minnesota's linebacker corps after signing a two-year, $20 million contract. He'll be counted on as an impact edge rusher but could face competition for snaps from first-round pick Dallas Turner. Read Past Outlooks

Returns to practice
Van Ginkel (foot) participated in 11-on-11 practice Saturday for the first time during training camp, Will Ragatz of Sports Illustrated reports.
ANALYSIS
Van Ginkel sustained a foot injury during the Dolphins' regular-season finale last season that held him out of the team's playoff loss to the Chiefs. It looks like he's on pace to be ready for the start of the regular season. He signed a two-year, $20 million deal with the Vikings after the season and is expected to serve as one of the team's top edge rushers.

After Kirk Cousins was allowed to walk in free agency, one of Sam Darnold or rookie J.J. McCarthy will be under center for the Vikings in 2024, but the offense again will revolve around WR Justin Jefferson.

The first two years under Mike McDaniel in Miami have been defined by a need for a speed paced by WR Tyreek Hill. With a lucrative long-term contract in place, QB Tua Tagovailoa will continue to lead the way.

May have better chance of return
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.
