Austin Keys: Everything you need to know

Keys (ankle) was listed as a full participant on Monday's estimated practice report. Keys was inactive for Sunday's win over the Giants but appears to be ready to return to the lineup following the one-game absence. The linebacker has logged 191 of his 199 snaps on special teams this season.

Keys (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants. Keys posted an LP-LP-FP practice log during Week 16 prep while working through an ankle injury, but he has not been cleared to play Sunday after going through pregame warmups. He's mostly served on special teams this season, but his absence means the Vikings will have less depth at inside linebacker behind Blake Cashman and Eric Wilson. Keys' next opportunity to play is Christmas Day against the Lions.

Keys (groin) is active for Sunday's game against Cincinnati. A groin injury prevented Keys from playing against the Falcons in Week 2, but he has been cleared to play Sunday after logging limited practices this past week. Keys played solely on special teams during the Vikings' Week 1 victory over the Bears and will likely reprise that role Week 3.
