Vikings Center Ryan Kelly Placed on IR, Season Ends Due to Third Concussion

Minnesota Vikings center Ryan Kelly has been placed on injured reserve for the second time this season, effectively ending his 2025 campaign. Kelly suffered his third concussion of the year in Sunday's game, limiting him to just eight games. This move could potentially be career-ending. Michael Jurgens is expected to start in his place against the Lions. The team also signed interior offensive lineman Henry Byrd and elevated linebacker Sione Takitaki, while rookie tight end Gavin Bartholomew was downgraded to out.
