## 2026 Outlook

Second-year edge rusher Tyler Batty suffered a season-ending torn ACL against the Denver Broncos in preseason Week 3 (August 31). Batty was projected as the Vikings' EDGE3 option and had been establishing himself in Brian Flores' defense with solid run-edge setting and pass-rush instincts. His injury creates significant depth concerns at the position, leaving the Vikings with Bo Richter and Chaz Chambliss as the next-level options. Free agents Haason Reddick, Kyle Van Noy, Joey Bosa, and Leonard Floyd remain targets for Minnesota to fortify the edge-rusher position.
