News

  • Changing squads

    Van Ginkel (foot) is slated to sign a two-year, $20 million contract with the Vikings on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel saw extra opportunities in 2023 and was able to record a career-high 6.0 sacks among 69 total tackles along with eight passes defended, including an interception. He should step right into a starting role on the strong side of Minnesota's linebacker corps, while D.J. Wonnum (quadriceps) will likely move into a depth role.

  • Officially out for playoffs

    Van Ginkel (foot) was placed on injured reserve by the Dolphins on Tuesday.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel suffered a season-ending foot injury in Sunday's loss to the Bills and he'll now officially be sidelined for the postseason. The linebacker appeared in all 17 of the team's regular-season games this year, recording 69 tackles, including 6.0 sacks, while also adding a pick-six, eight pass deflections and a fumble recovery.

  • Unavailable for postseason

    Van Ginkel (foot) will be out for the rest of the season, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: It's still not clear whether or not Van Ginkel will need to undergo surgery to address his foot injury. With Jaelan Phillips (Achilles) and Bradley Chubb (knee) both also out for the rest of the year, Melvin Ingram is the next man up on the edge for the Dolphins.

  • Won't return Sunday

    Van Ginkel (foot) won't return to Sunday's game against the Bills.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel went down early in the third quarter Sunday and went straight to the locker room afterward. He'll be unavailable for the remainder of the regular-season finale, and it's unclear whether he'll be available for the start of the playoffs next weekend.

  • Questionable to return

    Van Ginkel is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Buffalo due to a foot injury.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel tallied a solo tackle to begin Sunday's matchup, but it's unclear whether he'll be available down the stretch after sustaining a foot injury in the third quarter. Melvin Ingram could see increased playing time if Van Ginkel is unable to return.

  • Outstanding in win over Cowboys

    Van Ginkel tallied 10 tackles (seven solo), including 1.5 sacks, and one pass breakup during Sunday's 22-20 victory over Dallas.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel had his first double-digit tackling day of the season, bringing his sack total to six across 15 appearances while playing a key role in Sunday's win. That's already a career-high mark in terms of sacks, and Van Ginkel needs just six more tackles to tie his previous best of 71. He'll have one such opportunity at Baltimore in Week 17.

  • Healthy ahead of Week 16

    Van Ginkel (oblique) was a full participant at the Dolphins' practice Friday, Travis Wingfield of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel opened the week as a limited participant at Miami's first two practice sessions due to an oblique injury, but he's now ready to go for Sunday's matchup with the Cowboys. The linebacker has recorded 20 tackles as well as a pick-six over the last five contests.

  • Going to play

    Van Ginkel (oblique) is active Sunday against the Jets.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel was able to log a full week of limited practices and will be able to take the field in Week 15. The Wisconsin product has been a key piece of the Dolphins' linebacker corps this season and should remain so Sunday.

  • Questionable for Sunday

    Van Ginkel (oblique) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel was a limited participant in all three practices this week and has a chance to play Sunday. The 2019 fifth-round pick has 51 tackles (31 solo), including 4.0 sacks, one fumble recovery and an interception return for a touchdown over 13 games this season.

  • Scores pick-six at Washington

    Van Ginkel recorded five tackles (four solo) and an interception that he returned for a touchdown in Sunday's 45-15 win at Washington.

    Analysis: Late in the first quarter, Van Ginkel read a screen pass drawn up for Jahan Dotson like a book, caught the ball himself and took it back close to 30 yards in the other direction for a touchdown, extending the Dolphins' lead to 17-0. He's on pace for a career season in the sack department, but playing opposite Bradley Chubb means there normally aren't enough sacks to go around for Van Ginkel to be a consistent IDP option.

  • Cleared for SNF

    Van Ginkel (illness) is good to go for Sunday night's matchup with the Eagles, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel popped up on the injury report after missing Thursday's practice. However, he logged a full workload Friday, so it looks like he has moved past the issue. Barring any setbacks, he is expected to take on his usual workload at linebacker.

  • Dealing with illness

    Van Ginkel (illness) did not participate at practice Thursday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: He hasn't missed a game yet this season, but Van Ginkel's availability for Week 7 now seems to be in jeopardy. To avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend, he'll likely need to practice in full Friday.

  • Tallies sack No. 4

    Van Ginkel racked up three solo tackles, one sack and one pass defensed during Sunday's 31-16 win over the Giants.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel made an impact all over the field in Miami's decisive Week 5 victory, again rewarding fantasy managers who trusted him in IDP formats. It's worth noting that Van Ginkel's fantasy success has been reliant on pass-rush efficiency that may not be sustainable, but he will have a prime opportunity to keep up his momentum Week 6 against Carolina.

  • Notches two sacks

    Van Ginkel logged five tackles (four solo), including two sacks, during the Dolphins' 48-20 loss to the Bills on Sunday.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel saw increased playing time with Jaelan Phillips (oblique) sidelined and had his most productive outing of the season despite the blowout loss. If Phillips is forced to miss another game, the 28-year-old could be in line for a bigger role once again.

    Published: Mon, Oct 2 at 7:31pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Likely to start Sunday

    Van Ginkel will likely start in Sunday's game at Buffalo, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: First-rounder Jaelan Phillips (oblique) has been ruled out of Sunday's game at the Bills, and Van Ginkel figures to be the next man up at outside linebacker opposite Bradley Chubb. In what could very easily turn into a shootout, Van Ginkel will probably see ample pass-rushing opportunities in Week 4.

  • Returning to Miami

    The Dolphins are re-signing Van Ginkel on Tuesday, Alain Poupart of SI.com reports.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel has played every regular-season game for Miami in three straight seasons, while handling roles on both defense and special teams. It makes sense for the Dolphins to prioritize retaining such a reliable, versatile veteran, though for fantasy purposes he doesn't carry much value outside of deep IDP formats.

  • Set to play Thursday

    Van Ginkel (illness) is listed as active for Thursday's contest against the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel has managed to suit up for every game this season and he will once again be available for the Dolphins. The 27-year-old linebacker figures to see snaps on special teams as well as on defense while occasionally spelling Melvin Ingram on Thursday night against the Bengals.

    Published: Thu, Sep 29 at 4:19pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Added to injury report

    Van Ginkle (illness) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Bengals, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Van Ginkle is a late addition to Miami's injury report due to an illness. He handled a season-high 22 percent of defensive snaps during Week 3's win over the Bills, when he recorded three tackles (one solo).

  • Ready to play

    Van Ginkel (appendix) is active Sunday against the Patriots.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel had an appendectomy in late August and logged limited practices throughout the week. Now fully recovered, he should provide depth at linebacker for the team Sunday.

  • Questionable for season opener

    Van Ginkel (appendix) is questionable for Sunday's season opener against the Patriots, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel had his appendix removed at the end of August and was able to log limited practices Wednesday through Friday. However, his status for Week 1 remains in doubt. If he's unable to suit up, Trey Flowers would be the Dolphins' top outside linebacker behind Jaelan Phillips and Melvin Ingram.

  • Undergoes appendectomy

    Van Ginkel had his appendix removed Thursday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel's appendix was removed but not ruptured, making his timetable to return shorter. There's optimism within the Dolphins' organization that the linebacker could be ready to go for Week 1 of the regular season Sept. 11 versus the Patriots.

  • Active in Week 11

    Van Ginkel (back) is active for Sunday's game against the Jets, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel practiced in limited fashion throughout the week, so it's not a big surprise that he'll be able to suit up. He enters Week 11 having posted 1.5 sacks across his last two games and should continue to play a key role in Miami's defense.

    Published: Sun, Nov 21 at 9:05am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Limited at Friday's practice

    Van Ginkel (back) is questionable for Sunday's contest against the Jets, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel was limited at practice all week and is officially questionable for Sunday's game. If he is unable to suit up, then Darius Hodge is expected to be in line for an increased role against New York.

  • Wraps up moderate breakout campaign

    Van Ginkel had 48 tackles (29 solo), 5.5 sacks, four defended passes, three forced fumbles and one fumble that he recovered for a touchdown across 16 games in 2020.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel spent most of his rookie season in 2019 dealing with a foot injury, ultimately only suiting up for six contests, but he emerged as a consistent contributor on defense while playing a full 16-game slate in 2020. The second-year pro usually lingered around 50 percent of defensive snaps per game, though he jumped into a starting role (80-plus percent of snaps) during the final four games of the regular season. Given the ability Van Ginkel demonstrated as a pass rusher this season, he'll…read more

  • Two sacks against Raiders

    Van Ginkel recorded eight tackles (seven solo), including two sacks, and a pass defensed across 56 defensive snaps in Saturday's win over the Raiders.

    Analysis: The second-year linebacker logged his first sack since Week 5, bringing his season-total to 4.5. His eight tackles in the contest were also a single-game career high. He'll look to finish out the season strong Sunday at Buffalo.

  • Officially clear of concussion

    Coach Brian Flores said that Van Ginkel is out of the concussion protocol, Cameron Wolfe of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel logged a full practice session Wednesday, making this announcement from Flores little more than a formality. Barring any sort of setback between now and Sunday, Van Ginkel appears ready to suit up against the Rams, having been afforded extra time to recuperate by Miami's Week 7 bye.

  • Practices in full Wednesday

    Van Ginkel (concussion) was a full practice participant Wednesday, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Coach Brian Flores said Monday that the 25-year-old was still in the concussion protocol, but he was able to practice with no limitations Wednesday. Van Ginkel sustained the concussion during the Week 6 win over the Jets, but it appears he won't miss any games due to the well-timed bye week.

  • Remains in concussion protocol

    Coach Brian Flores said Monday that Van Ginkel is making progress but remains in concussion protocol, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel still has plenty of time to clear the league's protocol and return to the lineup this Sunday against the Rams. If he's able to get back in the fold, his role will depend on whether Kyle Van Noy (groin) does the same. If Van Noy misses another week, Van Ginkel could start Sunday, but the second-year linebacker out of Wisconsin is in line for a decent workload either way.

  • Done for day

    Van Ginkel has been diagnosed with a concussion and won't return to Sunday's game versus the Jets, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel started in place of Kyle Van Noy (groin) on Sunday, but now he's done for the day as well. Sam Eguavoen is expected to see an increase in usage for the rest of the game. Van Ginkel will aim to clear the league's concussion protocol by the Week 8 matchup against the Rams.

  • Exits game Sunday

    Van Ginkel left Sunday's game against the Jets while being evaluated for a concussion, Hal Habib of The Palm Beach Post reports.

    Analysis: This is tough news for the Dolphins, as they're already without Kyle Van Noy (groin) on Sunday. Van Ginkel will enter concussion protocol, and he'll need to be cleared by independent league doctors. As long as the Wisconsin product is out, Shaq Lawson and Sam Eguavoen will handle outside linebacker duties.

  • Shows promise in rookie season

    Van Ginkel accumulated 15 tackles (11 solo), one sack and one fumble recovery across six regular-season games in 2019.

    Analysis: The rookie fifth-round pick began the season on injured reserve due to a foot issue. His role on defense ramped up upon his return to the field Week 12, culminating in a six-tackle performance during the season finale against New England, in which Van Ginkel handled 98 percent of snaps on defense. He'll benefit from another offseason to develop in Miami.

  • Reinstated from IR

    Van Ginkel was reinstated from injured reserve Wednesday, Barry Jackson of The Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Van Ginkel has yet to make his NFL debut but figures to do so in the coming weeks after he was activated off IR, fully recovered from a foot injury that has kept him on the shelf since being drafted in the fifth round of the 2019 draft.

    Published: Wed, Nov 20 at 1:39pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Designated to return

    Van Ginkel (foot) returned to practice Wednesday, meaning he's one of two players the Dolphins designated to return from IR, Alain Poupart of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: This opens the three-week window for the Dolphins to activate Van Ginkel from IR, and the rookie fifth-rounder could return as soon as Sunday against the Bills. The Dolphins' brass is likely excited to see what Van Ginkel can bring to the table at the top level after compiling 59 tackles -- 9.5 for a loss -- and 5.5 sacks over 12 games during his senior year at Wisconsin.
