Grugier-Hill made 18 tackles (11 solo), three passes defensed and two interceptions across 17 regular-season appearances with Minnesota in 2024. Grugier-Hill contributed as a reserve linebacker throughout the entire 2024 campaign with the Vikings, though in the team's final four games (including a wild-card round playoff loss to the Rams), he was limited to work on special teams. The 30-year-old veteran will become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.
Grugier-Hill had three total tackles, two pass defensed and an interception in Sunday's win over Houston. Grugier-Hill played on 21 of the defense's 67 snaps as he got work as a reserve interior linebacker with Ivan Pace out with a quad injury. Grugier-Hill was limited to special teams the first two games.
Grugier-Hill signed a contract with the Vikings on Wednesday, Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. Grugier-Hill played for the Panthers last season, recording 56 combined tackles, with a sack and interception on 392 defensive snaps in 17 games. He'll likely be a depth option for Minnesota's linebacker corps in 2024.
