The NFL’s New Starting Quarterbacks: Who Will Rise to Glory and Who Will Crumble Under Pressure?
Minnesota made offensive line upgrades a priority this offseason after making the playoffs despite allowing the 12th-highest run disruption rate (68.8%) and tying for the 13th-highest pressure rate (42.7%) and the fifth-highest sack rate allowed (8.4%). Not only did the Vikings sign guard Will Fries for $88 million and center Ryan Kelly $18 million, but they also used their first-round pick on Ohio State guard Donovan Jackson.
Fries and Kelly were two of the best pass- and run-blocking interior linemen in 2024, while Jackson finished his final season with the national champion Buckeyes with a 7.9% run disruption rate allowed, an 8.5% pressure rate allowed, and a 2.1% adjusted sack rate allowed.
