The Minnesota Vikings signed Pro Bowl linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel to a contract extension on Tuesday, with multiple reports saying it was a one-year, $23 million extension through the 2026 season.
Van Ginkel, 29, had signed with the Vikings as a free agent in March 2024 on a two-year, $20 million contract.
He was voted to the Pro Bowl in 2024 after totaling career bests with 79 tackles, 18 tackles for loss, 11.5 sacks and two interceptions — both returned for touchdowns — in 17 games (all starts).
