Vikings' Danielle Hunter: Gets another sack Sunday
Hunter recorded four tackles (three solo), a sack and a forced fumble in Sunday's 28-24 loss versus the Chargers.
Hunter continued his lightning-fast start to the 2023 season in Week 3, tallying his fifth sack of the young campaign. He should see plenty more opportunities to rush the passer in Week 4 at Carolina.

Vikings' Danielle Hunter: Sacks Hurts thrice
Hunter had eight tackles (five solo), including three sacks, in Thursday's 34-28 loss to Philadelphia.
Minnesota's pass rush dominated early, and Hunter ultimately accounted for three of the team's four sacks of Jalen Hurts. Unfortunately for Hunter and his teammates, they had no answer for an Eagles running game that racked up 259 yards and three touchdowns. With four sacks through two games, Hunter could challenge his career high of 14.5 sacks, which he reached in both 2018 and 2019.

Vikings' Danielle Hunter: Get sack in season opener
Hunter had a sack, two tackles for a loss, a pass defensed and seven total tackles in Sunday's loss to Tampa Bay.
Hunter missed the team's minicamp workouts amid a contract dispute, but he's healthy and motivated after agreeing to a one-year deal before training camp began. Injuries are always a concern, however -- Hunter missed 2020 with a neck issue and was limited to seven appearances during the 2021 campaign due to a pectoral injury -- but at least in Week 1, the veteran returned to the form that saw him post 10.5 sacks last season.

Vikings' Danielle Hunter: Gets new one-year deal
Hunter and the Vikings agreed Sunday on a one-year deal worth up to $20 million, Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network report.
Minnesota made Hunter available for trade earlier in the summer but wasn't able to find a suitor willing to meet its asking price. Hunter, who was set to enter the 2023 season on a $4.9 million salary coming off a 10.5-sack season, held out of the Vikings' mandatory minicamp due to dissatisfaction with his contract, but he reported back to the team for the start of training camp. The 28-year-old has now been rewarded with a salary more commensurate with his production, as he'll now be guaranteed $17 million for 2023 with the upside to earn an additional $3 million in incentives. Hunter is still scheduled to become a free agent after the season.
