Vikings' Ivan Pace: Logs 72 tackles across 11 contests
Pace finished the 2024 season with 72 tackles (36 solo), including 3.0 sacks, one pass breakup, including one interception, and one fumble recovery across 11 regular-season contests.
Pace missed Weeks 3 and 4 with an ankle injury and was sidelined again from Weeks 13 through 16 with a hamstring issue that landed Pace on injured reserve for four games. He played 79 percent of the defensive snaps in the wild-card playoff loss to the Rams and should be viewed as the favorite to start alongside Blake Cashman at linebacker in 2025 for Minnesota. Pace has one year remaining on his current contract.

Vikings' Ivan Pace: Activated off IR on Saturday
The Vikings activated Pace (hamstring) off injured reserve Saturday, and he does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Packers.
Pace spent the past four weeks on injured reserve due to a hamstring injury he suffered against the Bears in Week 12. He was designated to return from injured reserve Tuesday, and he has subsequently been activated off IR after logging full practices all week. In the eight games prior to his injury, Pace registered 59 tackles (31 solo), including 3.0 sacks, and one fumble recovery.

Vikings' Ivan Pace: Iffy to come off IR for Week 17
Pace (hamstring), who is still on IR, is questionable to suit up against the Packers on Sunday.
Pace was designated to return from injured reserve Tuesday and was deemed a full participant in practice throughout the week. However, it's not certain that he'll be active for Sunday's big matchup against Green Bay, and Minnesota would need to activate hm from IR by 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday for that to be a possibility. Pace had started in all nine of the games in which he played prior to getting hurt Week 12 versus Chicago.

Vikings' Ivan Pace: Logs full practice Thursday
Pace (hamstring) practiced in full Thursday.
Pace was designated to return from IR on Tuesday and was estimated as a full participant Wednesday. He then practiced in full Thursday, making a return to action Sunday versus Green Bay a legitimate possibility. Prior to getting hurt Week 12 versus Chicago, Pace had tallied 59 tackles, including 3.0 sacks, along with a fumble he returned for a touchdown over nine contests.

Vikings' Ivan Pace: Estimated as full participant
Pace (hamstring) was listed as a full practice participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report.
Pace has missed the Vikings' last four games while on injured reserve due to a hamstring injury he suffered against Chicago in Week 12. He was designated to return from IR on Tuesday, and while Wednesday's session was a walkthrough rather than a practice, Pace's full participation indicates that he is progressing well through his recovery. If he's able to fully participate in practice over the next two days, Pace could be activated off IR ahead of Sunday's NFC North clash against the Packers.

Vikings' Ivan Pace: Designated to return from IR
The Vikings designated Pace (hamstring) to return from injured reserve Tuesday, Craig Peters of the team's official site reports.
Pace missed the Vikings' last four games due to a hamstring injury he picked up in Week 12 against the Bears. With his 21-day practice window opened Tuesday, Pace will be able to return to practice this week, and depending on his participation in those sessions, he could be activated off IR ahead of Minnesota's Week 17 clash against Green Bay on Sunday. Prior to his injury, Pace accumulated 59 tackles (31 solo), including 2.0 sacks, and returned a fumble for a touchdown over nine regular-season games.

Vikings' Ivan Pace: Might return soon
Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said Sunday that Pace (hamstring) might be in line to return from injured reserve soon, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
The linebacker was placed on IR in late November after hurting his hamstring in the Vikings' Week 12 win over the Bears. The Vikings' Week 17 matchup with Green Bay would represent his earliest possible return date. Pace has recorded 59 tackles (31 solo) and three sacks in nine games this season.

Vikings' Ivan Pace: Placed on injured reserve
The Vikings placed Pace (hamstring) on injured reserve Tuesday.
Pace injured his hamstring during the Vikings' 30-27 overtime win over the Bears, and the injury is severe enough for him to be sidelined for multiple weeks. By being placed on IR, Pace will be forced to miss at least the next four regular-season games, making Week 17 against the Packers on Sunday, Dec. 29 the earliest he can return. Kamu Grugier-Hill -- who played a season-high 45 defensive snaps Sunday and finished with three tackles (two solo) -- will likely be the Vikings' second starting inside linebacker alongside Blake Cashman due to Pace's injury.
