2025 Fantasy Outlook
Kelly has been a longtime plus-starter for the Colts since being selected in the first round of the 2016 NFL Draft, and he now takes his talents at center to Minnesota. A neck injury and knee scope limited Kelly to just 10 starts with Indy last season, but the 32-year-old begins his Vikings tenure at full health. He represents an upgrade at C over Garrett Bradbury for new starting quarterback J.J. McCarthy. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a two-year, $18 million contract with the Vikings in March of 2025.
Not yet ready to return
Kelly (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 11 matchup against Chicago, Dane Mizutani of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
ANALYSIS
Kelly was designated to return from IR on Wednesday, and he logged a trio of limited practices this week. However, he's not yet ready to play as he continues to work his way back from a concussion he suffered in Week 4 against Pittsburgh. Kelly's next chance to suit up will come Sunday, Nov. 23 against Green Bay. Until Kelly is able to return, Michael Jurgens should continue to start at center for the Vikings.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could stay in division
The Texans could be interested in Kelly if he doesn't re-sign with the Colts this offseason, Ben Solak of ESPN suggests.
ANALYSIS
Kelly is a pending free agent and has stated his preference to remain with the Colts. However, the veteran center could be out of the team's price range, in which case he will be a coveted option on the open market. The Texans suffered a number of injuries that hurt their offensive line play in 2024, something the team will likely address this offseason.
