Vikings may release LB Ivan Pace after offseason signings

The Minnesota Vikings are considering the potential release of linebacker Ivan Pace as they prepare for the upcoming 2026 season. After adding second-round draft pick Jake Golday and former safety Jamal Adams, Pace's position on the depth chart has come into question. Pace lost his starting role last season and had a missed tackle rate of 11.4%, the highest of his career. As the Vikings solidify their linebacker unit, Pace's future remains uncertain, with possible trade scenarios discussed. His contract status indicates he may hit free agency next offseason.
