Top James Lynch News

  • Bears' James Lynch: Lands in Chicago

    The Bears signed Lynch to a one-year contract Wednesday, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.

    Lynch played with the Vikings from 2020-23 and with the Titans from 2024-25, and he will now provide interior defensive line depth in Chicago. While suiting up for all 17 regular-season games with Tennessee in 2025, Lynch totaled 25 tackles (14 solo), including a half-sack, plus one pass defensed.

  • Titans' James Lynch: Re-signs with Titans

    The Titans re-signed Lynch on Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

    Lynch is set to return to Tennessee, where he recorded 20 tackles (six solo), including 1.0 sacks, and two pass defections during the 2024 campaign. He will likely serve as a depth defender during the upcoming season and can contribute on special teams as well.

  • Titans' James Lynch: Solid production in 2024

    Lynch finished the 2024 season with 20 total tackles (six solo), including 2.0 sacks, while also adding two passes defensed over 17 regular-season games.

    Lynch signed a one-year deal with Tennessee in September, appearing in all of the team's contests while operating as a depth option at defensive end behind Sebastian Joseph-Day and Jeffery Simmons. Lynch will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent and he'll likely garner plenty of interest on the open market.

  • Vikings' James Lynch: Clear of knee injury

    Lynch (knee) started and logged 27 defensive snaps, along with one snap on special teams, during Minnesota's preseason win over Cleveland on Saturday.

    Lynch finished with three assisted tackles in the exhibition contest. He had registered 18 defensive snaps and five special-teams snaps during the Vikings' preseason opener against Las Vegas on Aug. 10. Lynch appears to be past the ACL tear that cost him all of last season, and he is battling for a depth spot on the 53-man roster as a backup defensive lineman.

  • Vikings' James Lynch: Moved to injured reserve

    Lynch (knee) was placed on IR on Sunday, Craig Peters of the Vikings' official site reports.

    Lynch suffered a torn ACL during practice Thursday, so the move doesn't come as a surprise. The 24-year-old had a regular role in the team's defensive line rotation in both of the last two seasons and was expected to do so again in 2023. He'll now focus on getting healthy for the 2024 campaign.

  • Vikings' James Lynch: Tears ACL in practice

    Lynch suffered a torn ACL in Thursday's practice, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    A fourth-round pick in the 2020 Draft, Lynch missed the final two games of last season with a shoulder injury and will now be sidelined for all of 2023. Lynch played 276 defensive snaps a year ago and has just two career sacks. He's scheduled to become a free agent in March.

  • Vikings' James Lynch: Full participant Wednesday

    Lynch (shoulder) was a full participant during Wednesday's practice.

    Lynch missed the final two games of the regular season due to a shoulder injury he suffered during the Vikings' Week 16 win over the Giants. However, it appears the backup defensive end has moved past the issue and will suit up for Minnesota's rematch with New York during the wild-card weekend.
