Barr spent his first eight pro seasons with the Vikings before joining the Cowboys for the 2022 campaign. He hasn't played this year but shouldn't take too long to get re-acclimated in Minnesota. His return coincides with the hospitalization of linebacker Jordan Hicks, who developed compartment syndrome and will miss time.

In addition to returning to practice as a full participant on Tuesday, the former Pro Bowl linebacker has said he will be ready to go on Thursday night.

Minnesta Vikings linebacker Anthony Barr (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday’s Week 2 contest against the Arizona Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact

Barr was unable to practice this week and has been ruled out for Week 2 against Arizona. This will be the second straight game Barr has missed due to a knee injury. The Vikings' defense will also be without DE Everson Griffen (concussion) on Sunday. Minnesota’s defense allowed 27 points and surrendered 366 yards of total offense to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 1. Barr’s absence only helps QB Kyler Murray and the Arizona Cardinals’ offense. The Vikings D/ST is not a viable streaming option in Week 2.
