  • Cowboys' Eric Kendricks: Ends up in Dallas

    Kendricks and the Cowboys agreed on a contract Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. After initially agreeing to a deal with the 49ers, Kendricks had a change of heart and he'll ultimately reunite with his former head coach Mike Zimmer, who is now the Cowboys' defensive coordinator. Kendricks spent the 2023 campaign with the Chargers, recording 117 tackles, including 3.5 sacks, while also adding six pass deflections and a fumble recovery over 15 contests. He'll likely operate as the starting middle linebacker in Dallas and should have a good chance of maintaining his impressive level of production.

  • Chargers' Eric Kendricks: Limited in practice again

    Kendricks (ribs) was listed as a limited participant on the Chargers' injury report Friday. Kendricks has been limited in back-to-back practices following Sunday's 30-13 win against the Bears, so it looks like he picked up a new rib injury during this contest. The 31-year-old also logged double-digit tackles for the first time this season during the Week 8 win, and he's totaled 40 stops and two passes defended across five games. Kendricks will have one more practice Saturday to improve his status before Monday's game against the Jets.

  • Chargers' Eric Kendricks: Good to go

  • Chargers' Eric Kendricks: Returns to practice

    Kendricks (hamstring) was a limited participant at the Chargers' practice Wednesday. Kendricks missed the team's 28-24 win over the Vikings in Week 3 after he failed to participate at practice all week prior to the contest, so his return to the field Wednesday is a step in the right direction. The linebacker will look to increase his workload the next two days ahead of the Chargers' divisional contest with Las Vegas on Sunday.

  • Chargers' Eric Kendricks: Doubtful for Week 2

    Kendricks (hamstring/personal) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Titans. Kendricks was unable to practice at all during the week. In addition to his hamstring injury, the linebacker is dealing with an unspecified personal matter, so his chances of taking the field in Week 2 are slim. Tanner Muse and Nick Niemann could see more playing time if Kendricks is inactive.

    Kendricks suffered a contusion on his lower leg in Saturday's win over the Colts, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

  • Vikings' Eric Kendricks: Likely to play vs. Detroit

    Minnesota will list Kendricks (toe) as questionable for Sunday versus the Lions, but the injury is probably not serious enough to keep him out for Week 3, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports. Kendricks was limited at practice Friday, but any missed time probably just amounts to load management for the veteran linebacker. He's played in 100 percent of the Vikings' defensive snaps so far this season, and that doesn't figure to change much against a run-heavy Detroit team in Week 3.

  • Vikings' Eric Kendricks: Eight tackles in Monday's loss

    Kendricks had eight total tackles and a QB hit in Monday's loss at Philadelphia. Kendricks missed three tackles, according to Pro Football Focus, but did well in pass coverage. His tackle totals through two games are down slightly from last season's pace, which is a worry for his fantasy value given Minnesota's move to a 3-4 defensive scheme has the potential to change his role slightly.

  • Vikings' Eric Kendricks: Sidelined for Week 18

    Kendricks (illness) won't be available for Sunday's game against the Bears after the Vikings didn't reinstate him from the reserve/COVID-19 list prior to Saturday's deadline for Week 18 roster moves, Will Ragatz of SI.com reports. Minnesota is expected to turn to Nick Vigil and Blake Lynch to handle near-every down roles at linebacker with Kendricks out of the lineup.
