“The Vikings are indeed signing edge rusher Kyle Van Noy, a source confirms @TomPelissero,” The Athletics Alec Lewis reported on X on September 1. “The perfect signing for an edge rusher position that lacked depth for months. Tyler Batty’s torn ACL added further urgency. Van Noy has familiarity with Brian Flores & defensive terminology.”
