Vikings' Ben Yurosek: Limited production in rookie season
Yurosek appeared in 14 games during the 2025 season and caught two passes for 14 yards.
Yurosek joined the team as an undrafted free agent last May and saw limited action during his rookie campaign. With both T.J. Hockenson (shoulder) and Josh Oliver (ankle) under contract for the 2026 campaign, Yurosek will likely continue to see the majority of his playing time on special teams next season.

Vikings' Ben Yurosek: Limited playing time in Week 15
Yurosek wasn't targeted while taking the field for just one of the Vikings' 55 snaps on offense in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Cowboys.
Yurosek was active for the first time since Week 11 but once again handled a muted role on offense. Through nine appearances on the season, the reserve tight end has logged 73 total snaps on offense and has produced a five-yard reception on two targets.

Vikings' Ben Yurosek: Healthy scratch Week 12
Yurosek (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against Green Bay.
Yurosek will be a healthy scratch for the first time this season, as the Vikings will go with three tight ends on the active roster in T.J. Hockenson, Josh Oliver and Ben Sims for Sunday's NFC North clash. Yurosek's next opportunity to play is Week 13 against the Seahawks on Sunday, Nov. 30.

Vikings' Ben Yurosek: Gets first career reception
Yurosek had one reception for five yards on two targets in Thursday's loss to the Chargers.
It was Yurosek's first career reception as he got increased playing time (15 snaps on offense) after Josh Oliver left with a foot injury. Yurosek could have a larger role if Oliver misses time, but he'll likely be used mostly as a blocking tight end.

Vikings' Ben Yurosek: Past knee injury
Yurosek (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Eagles.
Yurosek missed the Vikings' two games prior to the Week 6 bye due to a knee injury. He didn't appear on the injury report heading into Week 7, which indicates that the 23-year-old tight end should be available to play against Philadelphia. Yurosek did not record a catch or target through the first three games of the regular season.

Vikings' Ben Yurosek: Not available Sunday
Yurosek (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns in London.
Yurosek will miss his second straight game due to the knee injury he sustained in the Vikings' Week 3 win over the Bengals. The undrafted rookie tight end has held a minor role on offense over his three appearances this season, but his absence will be more noteworthy on special teams, where he's a regular part of the Vikings' coverage units.

Vikings' Ben Yurosek: Questionable for Week 5
Yurosek (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Browns.
The 23-year-old upgraded to a limited practice session Friday after logging consecutive DNPs to begin the Vikings' week of practice, suggesting he's trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday. However, if Yurosek is forced to miss the Week 5 contest, Minnesota's tight-end room will likely consist of just T.J. Hockenson, Josh Oliver and Nick Vannett.

He's played 66 total snaps (27 on offense, 39 on special teams) through the team's first three games this season, failing to draw a target.

Vikings' Benjamin Yurosek: Chooses Vikings as UDFA
Yurosek signed with the Vikings as an undrafted free agent.
Yurosek is a solid athlete out of Georgia, as he ran a 4.64 40-yard dash at 6-foot-4, 245 pounds. He features an 81-inch wingspan, too. The California native put together two solid seasons as a receiver at Stanford, but he never reached those levels again, especially in his fifth year when he caught just 15 passes for 185 yards and no scores at Georgia. His best path to a roster spot is as a run-blocking tight end.
