Breiden Fehoko criticizes Minnesota Vikings linebacker Kyle Van Noy

Former Los Angeles Chargers defensive tackle Breiden Fehoko publicly criticized Minnesota Vikings linebacker Kyle Van Noy on social media on September 3, 2026. Fehoko described his former teammate as a locker room distraction who prioritized personal contract incentives over team success during the 2022 season. He further alleged that Van Noy discouraged public support for quarterback Justin Herbert to protect his own media interests. Van Noy responded to the accusations with social media posts featuring film clips rather than direct verbal counterarguments. The exchange included additional involvement from former Chargers cornerback Quentin Jammer and referenced previous critiques regarding team chemistry. Van Noy, who joined the Vikings after playing for the Baltimore Ravens in 2025, is currently preparing for the season with members of his former Detroit Lions coaching staff.
