The Vikings waived Gedeon from the reserve/PUP list Tuesday with a failed physical designation.
EDGE Analysis
Gedeon was approaching the 11-week milestone where the Vikings would need to either activate him from the PUP list, keep him on PUP list all year or waive him. The Vikings opted to let him go, and he'll be eligible to sign with another team once he's healthy.

The Vikings placed Gedeon (undisclosed) on the reserve/PUP list Saturday, Craig Peters and Eric Smith of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gedeon was unable to pass a physical, so he'll miss the first six weeks of the season. It's unclear what's holding him back, but it's noteworthy that his 2019 campaign ended with him on injured reserve due to a concussion. With Gedeon out of the fold, Troy Dye and Hardy Nickerson will be the main backups to Eric Wilson and Anthony Barr.

Gedeon (undisclosed) was placed on the PUP-P list by the Vikings on Monday, Andrew Krammer of the Star Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gedeon saw his season end last season due to two bouts with concussions, and as evidenced by this news, he failed his physical with the team heading into training camp. The Michigan product is heading into his final season with the Vikings under his current contract, so he will be eager to make an impact once healthy to fill a depth and special teams role for 2020.

The Vikings placed Gedeon (concussion) on injured reserve Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gedeon was already ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Seahawks after sustaining his second concussion of the year Nov. 17. The third-year linebacker will finish the season with 13 tackles over eight games. Eric Wilson and Anthony Barr are the remaining healthy outside linebackers for the time being.

Gedeon is done for Sunday's game against the Broncos due to a consussion, Chad Graff of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear how Gedeon picked up the injury, but he was forced to leave the game in the third quarter. He'll now enter the league's mandated concussion protocol, and need be cleared before resuming football activities. As long as Gedeon is sidelined, look for Eric Wilson to fill in at the linebacker position.

Gedeon (concussion) will play in Thursday's game against the Redskins.
EDGE Analysis
Gedeon was a full practice participant all week and won't carry an injury tag into this contest. The third-year pro is listed as a starter on the Vikings' depth chart, but he didn't surpass a 31-percent snap share through four games this year. His IDP value is negligible until he ups his snap count.

Gedeon (concussion) was a full practice participant Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Gedeon appears on track to make his return after missing the past two games, though it's worth noting he has yet to be officially cleared from the concussion protocol. Wednesday's injury report should provide more clarity on his availability for Thursday's game.
