Minnesota placed Yurosek on injured reserve Tuesday due to an undisclosed injury.
Though the nature of Yurosek's injury isn't known, Ben Goessling of The Minnesota Star Tribune relays that the second-year tight end isn't expected to face a long-term absence. Yurosek will have to miss at least four games as a result of his move to IR, making the Vikings' Oct. 11 game in New Orleans as the earliest date for his potential 2026 debut. The 24-year-old mainly handled a blocking and special-teams role for the Vikings in 2025, recording just two catches for 14 yards on three targets over 12 games.
