  • Cowboys' Nick Vigil: Limited defensive role in 2024

    Vigil finished the 2024 season with 22 tackles (10 solo) over 16 games. Vigil operated primarily as a special-teams option this season, playing just 119 defensive snaps over his 16 games with Dallas. The soon-to-be 31-year-old will be an unrestricted free agent in the offseason after signing a one-year contract with the Cowboys in 2024.

    Vigil (foot) is active for Sunday's game against the Commanders. The linebacker was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's walkthrough session, missed Thursday's practice and then returned in a limited capacity Friday.

  • Cowboys' Nick Vigil: Questionable for Sunday

    Vigil (foot) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Eagles, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports. With DeMarvion Overshown (knee) and Eric Kendricks (calf) sidelined during the Week 16 win over the Buccaneers, Vigil played a season-high 67 defensive snaps and recorded 10 total tackles. However, the Utah State product appears to have picked up a foot injury in the process, opening Dallas' week of practice with consecutive DNPs. Vigil upgraded to a limited session Friday, indicating he may be trending toward playing Sunday. If the veteran is unable to suit up in Week 17, expect Damone Clark to step in as the Cowboys' top weakside linebacker.

Vigil popped up on the team's injury report Wednesday after having racked up 10 tackles during the team's Week 16 win over the Buccaneers.

  • Cowboys' Nick Vigil: Will play through foot injury

    Vigil (foot) is active for Monday's Week 11 game against Houston, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports. Vigil dealt with a foot injury throughout the week and wasn't able to take part in any practices, but he'll still be able to suit up on Monday Night Football. The veteran linebacker has played mostly on special teams this season, but he could see more than his usual allotment of defensive snaps against the Texans with Damone Clark (coach's decision) a surprise inactive.

  • Cowboys' Nick Vigil: Questionable due to foot injury

    Vigil (foot) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Texans, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. While Vigil has been tagged as questionable, he's likely leaning more toward doubtful due to the fact that he hasn't been able to practice all week due to a foot injury. Vigil's potential absence Monday wouldn't make too much of a difference for the Cowboys' defense, as he's mostly played on special teams this season.

  • Nick Vigil: Let go by New York

    The Jets released Vigil on Sunday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Vigil signed with the Jets on Aug. 9 and competed for a depth linebacker role. He played in just four games for the Cardinals last season before being placed on injured reserve in October for a hamstring injury. The 2016 third-round pick registered 10 tackles (six solo) in three preseason games. He should provide a veteran presence for a team in need once he clears waivers.

  • Nick Vigil: Working out with New York

    Vigil (hamstring) is working out with the Giants on Friday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

  • Cardinals' Nick Vigil: Out against Philadelphia

    Vigil (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 5's matchup against the Eagles, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports. Vigil suffered a hamstring injury during Week 4's contest against the Panthers. The 2016 third-round pick was unable to practice all this week, so it's no surprise he's sitting Sunday's game out. While Zaven Collins remains the Cardinals' No. 1 left-inside linebacker, Ben Niemann may see his role increase with Vigil out.

  • Vikings' Nick Vigil: Makes 15 tackles in loss to Lions

    Vigil had 15 tackles (nine solo) during Sunday's divisional loss to the Lions. Vigil played 100 percent of defensive snaps and took on an even more key role than usual with both Eric Kendricks (biceps) and Anthony Barr (knee) sidelined. Depending on the health of Minnesota's linebacker corps, Vigil could end up playing another every-down role versus the Steelers on Thursday.

  • Vikings' Nick Vigil: Productive game with Barr out

    Vigil had 10 total tackles, a sack, two tackles for a loss and a QB hit in Sunday's loss at Cincinnati. Vigil played all 69 of the defense's snaps, as he stayed on the field in nickel and dime packages along with Eric Kendricks with Anthony Barr out with a knee injury. Barr may remain on the field with Vigil going to the sideline in nickel packages, but Barr may be eased into action even when he does return.

  • Vikings' Nick Vigil: Signs in Minnesota

    Vigil signed a one-year deal worth over $1 million guaranteed, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Vigil is joining his third NFL franchise in six seasons. He was a member of the Chargers for one year in 2020, but he saw a significant downturn in role and production. He'll now look to regain some of his value as a depth linebacker with Minnesota before hitting the free-agent market again after the 2021 campaign.

  • Chargers' Nick Vigil: Notches first sack

    Vigil had nine tackles (six solo) and a sack during Thursday's 30-27 overtime win over the Raiders. Vigil got off to a slow start this season, but he now has 32 total tackles over his last four games. The 27-year-old doesn't possess much upside as a pass rusher, as he's never had more than one sack in a single season, but his recent usage as a run stopper has provided a fair floor in IDP formats.

  • Chargers' Nick Vigil: Doubtful for Week 3

    Vigil (groin) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Panthers after failing to practice all week. Given Vigil's inability to log even a limited session in preparation for the Week 3 clash, the linebacker is unlikely to be active come game day.

  • Bengals' Nick Vigil: First sack of season

    Vigil recorded four tackles and a sack across 44 defensive snaps in Sunday's loss to the Ravens. The veteran linebacker rarely reaches the quarterback, as Sunday's sack was his first since the 2017 season and just the second of his career. Vigil has played in 94 percent of the team's defensive snaps this season, a figure which leads the Bengals' linebacking corps.
