The Minnesota Vikings offensive line took another hit on Saturday when they placed center Ryan Kelly (concussion) on injured reserve.

Kelly is in his first season with the Vikings after spending the first nine years of his career with the Colts. The four-time Pro Bowler will miss the next four games after suffering his second concussion in three weeks.

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was asked about the offseason free-agent rumors involving his interest in the Minnesota Vikings and he gave a clear answer on the topic.

There are a lot of plotlines for Sunday morning’s contest between the Browns and Vikings. Key among them will be the strategy the Vikings use against the Browns ferocious defense. This is the OBR Daily Newswire for 10/3/25.

The Vikings are currently 2-2 on the season, and McCarthy could return to provide a spark on the offense. However, he will need to compltely heal before that can happen, and it sounds like O'Connell will keep him sidelined for a longer duration.

The Minnesota Vikings could be without starting quarterback J.J. McCarthy for at least one more week due to a sprained ankle.

On Tuesday, ESPN Cleveland's Tony Rizzo said he's heard that Gabriel will start this week. It wouldn't be an easy first start for Gabriel. Minnesota is led defensively by coordinator Brian Flores, who will gladly fire up some intense blitzes and disguised coverages to test a rookie QB.

The Minnesota Vikings are going to be without J.J. McCarthy longer and Kevin O'Connell is doing right by the health of his young signal caller.
