Cowboys' Nick Vigil: Suiting up Thursday
Rotowire
Vigil (foot) is active for Thursday's Week 13 game versus the Giants.
Vigil was estimated as a non-participant in walkthroughs both Monday and Tuesday before logging a limited session Wednesday. That practice will be enough for the veteran defender to suit up on Thanksgiving Day. It's uncertain if Vigil will get any defensive snaps, though, as he's played only on special teams in six of his 10 contests this season.

Cowboys' Nick Vigil: Will play through foot injury
Rotowire
Vigil (foot) is active for Monday's Week 11 game against Houston, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Vigil dealt with a foot injury throughout the week and wasn't able to take part in any practices, but he'll still be able to suit up on Monday Night Football. The veteran linebacker has played mostly on special teams this season, but he could see more than his usual allotment of defensive snaps against the Texans with Damone Clark (coach's decision) a surprise inactive.

Cowboys' Nick Vigil: Questionable due to foot injury
Rotowire
Vigil (foot) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Texans, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
While Vigil has been tagged as questionable, he's likely leaning more toward doubtful due to the fact that he hasn't been able to practice all week due to a foot injury. Vigil's potential absence Monday wouldn't make too much of a difference for the Cowboys' defense, as he's mostly played on special teams this season.

Nick Vigil: Let go by New York
Rotowire
The Jets released Vigil on Sunday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Vigil signed with the Jets on Aug. 9 and competed for a depth linebacker role. He played in just four games for the Cardinals last season before being placed on injured reserve in October for a hamstring injury. The 2016 third-round pick registered 10 tackles (six solo) in three preseason games. He should provide a veteran presence for a team in need once he clears waivers.

Cardinals' Nick Vigil: Out against Philadelphia
Rotowire
Vigil (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 5's matchup against the Eagles, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Vigil suffered a hamstring injury during Week 4's contest against the Panthers. The 2016 third-round pick was unable to practice all this week, so it's no surprise he's sitting Sunday's game out. While Zaven Collins remains the Cardinals' No. 1 left-inside linebacker, Ben Niemann may see his role increase with Vigil out.

Vikings' Nick Vigil: Makes 15 tackles in loss to Lions
Rotowire
Vigil had 15 tackles (nine solo) during Sunday's divisional loss to the Lions.
Vigil played 100 percent of defensive snaps and took on an even more key role than usual with both Eric Kendricks (biceps) and Anthony Barr (knee) sidelined. Depending on the health of Minnesota's linebacker corps, Vigil could end up playing another every-down role versus the Steelers on Thursday.

Vikings' Nick Vigil: Signs in Minnesota
Rotowire
Vigil signed a one-year deal worth over $1 million guaranteed, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Vigil is joining his third NFL franchise in six seasons. He was a member of the Chargers for one year in 2020, but he saw a significant downturn in role and production. He'll now look to regain some of his value as a depth linebacker with Minnesota before hitting the free-agent market again after the 2021 campaign.

Chargers' Nick Vigil: Notches first sack
Rotowire
Vigil had nine tackles (six solo) and a sack during Thursday's 30-27 overtime win over the Raiders.
Vigil got off to a slow start this season, but he now has 32 total tackles over his last four games. The 27-year-old doesn't possess much upside as a pass rusher, as he's never had more than one sack in a single season, but his recent usage as a run stopper has provided a fair floor in IDP formats.

Bengals' Nick Vigil: Stellar in loss
Rotowire
Vigil racked up 13 tackles (10 solo) and recovered a fumble in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Ravens.

The 26-year-old recorded double-digit tackles for the third consecutive game, moving his season total to 51 in six games. Playing 91 percent of his team's defensive snaps during Week 6, Vigil will draw a solid matchup with a stagnant Jaguars offense in Week 7.
