Vikings' Kyle Van Noy: Promoted to active roster
The Vikings signed Van Noy from the practice squad to the active roster Tuesday, Craig Peters of the team's official site reports.
The Vikings burned through Van Noy's practice squad elevations by playing the veteran linebacker in each of the team's three wins to start the 2026 regular season. Van Noy logged 59 defensive snaps over the three contests, totaling seven tackles (five solo), including 1.5 sacks. The 35-year-old will now stay a key rotational edge rusher for the team, this time on the 53-man roster.

Vikings' Kyle Van Noy: Elevated in consecutive weeks
The Vikings elevated Van Noy from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears.
Van Noy started in the Vikings' Week 1 win over the Packers, playing 25 defensive snaps and 37 percent of the team's plays. The veteran logged only one solo tackle in the effort but provided enough experience and stability to likely see reps once again in Week 2 against a fearsome Bears rushing attack.

Kyle Van Noy: Reverts to practice squad after starting
Van Noy reverted to the Vikings' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Van Noy started Sunday's game against the Packers, playing 25 of the 68 defensive snaps for the Vikings' defense. The veteran linebacker logged one tackle but held up fairly well. There is a strong chance Van Noy will be elevated again for the team's Week 2 contest with the Bears.

Vikings' Kyle Van Noy: Elevated for Sunday's showdown
The Vikings elevated Van Noy from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Craig Peters of the team's official site reports.
Van Noy signed with the Vikings in early September after deciding to play another season. The veteran linebacker will likely play a limited number of snaps due to his age (35), but his experience should provide yet another wrinkle to coach Brian Flores' defense. If Van Noy performs sufficiently in Week 1 against the Packers, he may find a permanent spot on the Vikings' 53-man roster.

Kyle Van Noy: Visits Vikings on Tuesday
Van Noy visited the Vikings on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of Netflix reports.
Van Noy indicated he wants to keep playing, though it's unknown if his recent stop in Minnesota will do anything to improve his chances of staying on the field. The 2014 No. 40 overall pick has appeared in 173 regular-season games throughout his career, totaling 561 tackles, 57.0 sacks, 14 forced fumbles, 10 fumble recoveries and four interceptions. However, Van Noy is coming off his worst season in years, finishing the 2025 campaign with just 20 total tackles and two sacks in 15 regular-season games.

Kyle Van Noy: Joins Minnesota's practice squad
Van Noy agreed to sign with the Vikings' practice squad Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of Netflix reports.
Van Noy will reunite in Minnesota with defensive coordinator Brian Flores, who previously coached the edge rusher in New England. The 35-year-old linebacker will provide additional depth to a position group that recently lost Tyler Batty (knee) to a season-ending ACL tear. If Van Noy eventually gets elevated to the 53-man roster, he would likely be part of a pass-rush rotation that includes Andrew Van Ginkel and Dallas Turner.

Kyle Van Noy: Wants to play in 2026
Van Noy said Tuesday that he does not plan to retire before the 2026 season, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reports.
Van Noy, now 35 years old, was far less productive for Baltimore in 2025 (20 tackles, 2.0 sacks) than he was in the 2024 regular season (41 tackles, 12.5 sacks). However, even after his 13th year in the league, he's still expressing a desire to suit up for the upcoming campaign. Since his contract with the Ravens expired after last year, he's an unrestricted free agent, but it is yet to be seen if another club will be willing to take a chance on the veteran edge rusher.

Ravens' Kyle Van Noy: Minimal impact this season
Van Noy recorded 20 total tackles (12 solo) including 2.0 sacks, and four passes defensed including one interception, across 15 games in 2025.
The 34-year-old edge rusher logged just 488 defensive snaps, and his 2.0 sacks marked his lowest output since 2016 with the Patriots. Van Noy struggled to get after the quarterback but contributed in coverage, recording the sixth-most passes defensed on the Ravens. Set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, the veteran defender could draw interest from teams in need of pass-rush depth in 2026.

Ravens' Kyle Van Noy: Ready for Sunday
Van Noy (quadriceps) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday night's game against the Steelers.
Van Noy was able to upgrade to a full participant in Friday's practice after missing consecutive practices earlier in the week. The veteran linebacker's ability to suit up for Sunday night's contest means the Ravens will have him available as they attempt to take the AFC North title in the last game of the 2025 regular season. The 34-year-old will likely continue to share snaps at outside linebacker with rookie second-rounder Mike Green in Sunday's game.

Ravens' Kyle Van Noy: No practice Wednesday
Van Noy (quadriceps) did not practice Wednesday.
Van Noy previously managed a quad injury in preparation for Baltimore's game contest against the Patriots in Week 16, but he wasn't listed on the team's injury report for Week 17. The veteran linebacker will have two more chances to retake the practice field in time for Sunday night's crucial divisional showdown on the road against Pittsburg.
