For a few months this year, it seemed like veteran Kyle Van Noy could be on his way to the San Francisco 49ers. Instead, the veteran linebacker is headed to the Minnesota Vikings.
The Ringer's Tom Pelissero reported that Van Noy is signing with the Vikings, reuniting him with defensive coordinator Brian Flores.

The move eliminates a potential pickup for the 49ers' pass-rushing group and closes the book on months of speculation linking Van Noy to the 49ers.
Back in May, the 12-year veteran told FanDuel TV's Kay Adams he'd "really like to play" alongside fellow BYU alum Fred Warner, calling San Francisco a team with "something cooking." In July, Bleacher Report's Kristopher Knox went further, naming the 49ers the best landing spot for Van Noy among top defensive free agents and citing San Francisco's thin edge depth as a playoff contender.
