Vikings Placing C Ryan Kelly On IR

Kelly is being placed on the list due to sustaining a second concussion in the past three weeks.

Kelly, 32, is a former first-round pick by the Colts back in 2016 out of Alabama. He played out the fourth year of his four-year, $10.45 million rookie contract and made a base salary of $1.4 million for the 2019 season. 

The Colts picked up Kelly’s fifth-year option for the 2020 season, which paid him a base salary of $10.35 million. He then signed a four-year, $50 million extension with Indianapolis. 

Testing the free agent market, Kelly signed a two-year, $18 million deal with the Vikings

In 2025, Kelly appeared in and started four games for the Vikings at center.
