  • Vikings' Gavin Bartholomew: Downgraded to out for Week 16

    Bartholomew (back) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Giants.

    Bartholomew was initially listed as questionable for Sunday's game after logging back-to-back full practice sessions, but he nonetheless won't come off the reserve/PUP list yet. The rookie sixth-round pick's next opportunity to retake the field will come in Week 17 versus the Lions on Thursday night.

  • Vikings' Gavin Bartholomew: Officially questionable for Week 16

    Bartholomew (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants.

    Bartholomew ended Week 16 prep with back-to-back full practices to earn the questionable tag. He opened the season on the physically unable to perform list due to a back injury he sustained in late August, so he'd have to be activated from the Vikings' PUP list Saturday in order to be available for Sunday's contest. If that happens, the rookie sixth-rounder would be slated to make his NFL regular-season debut in New York.

  • Vikings' Gavin Bartholomew: Trending towards activation

    Bartholomew (back) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

    Bartholomew has yet to make his NFL debut. The sixth-round pick out of Pittsburgh has remained on the PUP list all year due to a back injury he suffered in late August. With a limited practice Wednesday and a full session Thursday, it seems the rookie tight end could be a depth addition to the Vikings' offense as early as Sunday's game against the Giants.

  • Vikings' Gavin Bartholomew: Practice window opens

    Bartholomew (back) was designated to return from the reserve/PUP list Wednesday.

    The rookie tight end from Pittsburgh was placed on the PUP list in late August due to a back issue, but it now appears he's nearing a return. Bartholomew has yet to make his NFL debut after posting 322 receiving yards and four touchdowns on 38 receptions during his final collegiate season. Once fully healthy, he'll likely play a depth role in the Vikings' tight-end corps.

  • Vikings' Gavin Bartholomew: Moves to PUP list

    Bartholomew (back) was placed on the reserve/PUP list Tuesday.

    The rookie sixth-round pick out of Pittsburgh missed the entire training camp and will now sit out at least four games. Bartholomew put together a solid collegiate career but never surpassed 326 yards or four touchdowns in a season. Once he returns, he'll look to usurp undrafted rookie Benjamin Yurosek for the No. 3 tight end job.

  • Vikings' Gavin Bartholomew: Dealing with back injury

    Coach Kevin O'Connell said Tuesday that Bartholomew is dealing with a lower back injury, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

    Bartholomew was placed on the active/PUP list Monday. The sixth-round rookie also missed a decent chunk of the offseason program rehabbing an injury.

  • Vikings' Gavin Bartholomew: Moves to active/PUP list

    Bartholomew (undisclosed) was placed on the active/PUP list by the Vikings on Monday.

    Once the tight end is able to resume practicing, he can return at any point during training camp and the preseason. Bartholomew was rehabbing an undisclosed injury during the Vikings' offseason program in June. Minnesota selected the Pittsburgh product in the sixth round of April's draft, though he's clearly behind T.J. Hockenson and Josh Oliver on the depth chart.

  • Vikings' Gavin Bartholomew: Rehabbing injury in offseason

    Bartholomew was off to the side rehabbing an undisclosed injury during the recent offseason program, Will Ragatz of Sports Illustrated reports.

    It's likely a minor injury, but it's something to watch at the start of training camp. Bartholomew is a 2025 sixth-round draft pick, so his roster spot isn't guaranteed and a slow start to training camp due to injury could hurt his chances.

  • Vikings' Gavin Bartholomew: Vikings add experienced tight end

    The Vikings selected Bartholomew in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 202nd overall.

    Bartholomew (6-foot-5, 246 pounds) likely won't prove to be any more than a backup in the NFL, but he had a respectable collegiate career at Pittsburgh, where he was a four-year starter. The problem is that Bartholomew just doesn't stand out in any way -- his production from his true freshman season (28 receptions for 326 yards and four touchdowns) was arguably a career year, and it's not usually a great sign if a player's best season is their true freshman one. With that said, Bartholomew's 4.7-second 40-yard dash is completely respectable and there's no obvious reason why he can't stick around the NFL for a while, even if he never tops a depth chart.
