4 Vikings Make PFF’s Midseason All-Pro Team Adam New | Published : Nov 13, 2026 Follow Us Facebook Twitter Reddit WhatsApp Email Copy Link Copy Link Link Copied We are at the halfway point in the season, which of course is the perfect time to be looking at which players have been impressing so far this season. The folks over at Pro Football Focus have put out their midseason All-Pro teams and four members of the Minnesota Vikings have made the cut. 4 Vikings Make PFF’s Midseason All-Pro Team Unsurprisingly, there’s no room for any of the Vikings players on offense after the first half of the season that the team has had on that side of the ball. It’s the Vikings’ dominant defense that has seen three players selected, while there is one spot for a Viking on special teams. Minnesota has two players selected to the All-Pro first team, and two players selected to the second team. First Team All-Pro Linebacker: Blake Cashman It should surprise nobody to see Blake Cashman’s name here. The Vikings linebacker is having a great season at the heart of the best defense in the league. Cashman joins Ventrell Miller and Fred Warner as the three first-team linebackers. Here is what PFF said about Cashman’s inclusion: Cashman is on track for a career year with an 86.8 overall PFF grade that ranks second at the position so far in 2026. He has been fantastic against the pass, earning PFF grades above 80.0 both in coverage and as a pass-rusher. He has recorded 16 pressures, including nine combined sacks and quarterback hits, across 86 pass-rushing snaps. With 76 tackles, including 8 tackles for loss, 4.5 sacks, 16 pressures, 7 passes defended, and 1 fumble recovery, Cashman is an all-action player on Brian Flores’ defense. He is on the injury report this week as he is in the concussion protocol, which is something to keep an eye on. He would be a huge miss for the Vikings if he can’t go this week, but hopefully it’s just a slight blip and he is ready to go as soon as possible. Second Team All-Pro Cornerback: Isaiah Rodgers and Byron Murphy Jr Cornerback was a position I had some concerns about coming into this season and thought the Vikings might look to make a major addition at the position. Instead, a good third CB in James Pierre was added to the team and he has helped out in coverage. Meanwhile, Isaiah Rodgers and Byron Murphy are both having impressive seasons, missing out on first-team selection to Denzel Ward and Trent McDuffie. Rogers has an overall grade from PFF this season of 77.9, with grades well above 70 in both coverage and run defense, and has one interception this season. Murphy has an overall grade of 72.4 with a coverage grade of 76.5 and has four interceptions so far this season, which leads the league at corner. With all the exotic stuff that goes on upfront in the Flores defense, the CBs need to be on their own on the back end and Rodgers and Murphy are doing just that. First Team All-Pro Punt Returner: Myles Price Finally, we have Myles Price as the first-team punt returner. Last season it was as a kick returner that Price built his reputation, and he had a decent case for that role on the All-Pro team as well. Here is what PFF had to say about Price’s inclusion. Price’s 86.5 PFF punt-return grade is the best among returners so far this season, and he also leads the way with an average of 17.5 yards per punt return. He has impressed as a kick returner, too, ranking third in PFF kick-return grade. Price currently has the only return touchdown of the season, a huge 86-yard return against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 3. He has been consistently dynamic and helped a struggling offense get points on the board by getting the team immediately into field goal range. There have been a couple of fumbles this season, to go with the four he had last season. That needs to be tightened up but his threat to make a big play has been invaluable to the Vikings so far this season.
