Christian Darrisaw News
Minnesota Vikings left tackle Christian Darrisaw (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions. Darrisaw was injured in the Week 12 loss to the San Francisco 49ers and will have to sit out this weekend. It might not matter much against a winless Lions team that has the second-fewest sacks (16) in the NFL entering Week 13 action this weekend. Still, it's something to watch in terms of quarterback Kirk Cousins' protection. Rashod Hill took over for Darrisaw when he was injured last Sunday and will likely start on Cousins' blind side against Detroit.
Minnesota Vikings offensive tackle Christian Darrisaw underwent a minor core muscle procedure on Thursday. The first-round pick from this year's draft is a big part of the Minnesota offensive line, which has had its struggles in the past. The team hopes that he can be ready for their Week 1 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals, but it seems like this may be a tall task. Upon the return of Darrisaw, stud running back Dalvin Cook should have an easier time finding running lanes, and quarterback Kirk Cousins should have more time throw. Darrisaw's eventual return will be good news for the Minnesota offense as a whole.
The Minnesota Vikings selected Virginia Tech offensive tackle Christian Darrisaw at No. 23 overall in the first round of the 2021 NFL draft on Thursday night. That's back-to-back Virginia Tech products to come off the board late in the first round. Darrisaw profiles as a left tackle, so he'll help protect quarterback Kirk Cousins' blind side. He has great lateral movement and plays with a mean streak on the offensive line. Darrisaw has always been an athlete, but he really improved his game overall in his time in college. He still will need to improve his hand technique so that he can remain consistent at the next level. Darrisaw is certainly an intriguing tools prospect and athlete.
