Vikings' Christian Darrisaw: Fully healthy as camp begins
Darrisaw (knee) told reporters Thursday that he hasn't felt this good "in two years," per Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com.
The left tackle tore his ACL and MCL in October 2024 and then struggled to play through the issue during the 2025 campaign, appearing in just 10 games. Darrisaw said he healed fully in the offseason and is no longer dealing with stiffness in his leg, according to Seifert. He has started 57 of the 59 games he's played in across a five-year NFL career.
