Returns to practice Hicks, who missed practices at the start of training camp due to a non-COVID illness, is participating in training camp practices, Arif Hasan of The Athletic reports.
Impact Hicks was held out of practices as a precaution, but it appears the linebacker is good to go moving forward. According to Hasan, Hicks is one of several starters to be isolated from other defensive players to work with the position coaches individually during portions of practice. The veteran will look to secure a starting role in Minnesota after a solid season with the Cardinals in 2021.

Not practicing with illness Hicks will not practice Thursday while dealing with a non-COVID illness, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
Impact Hicks will now miss his second-straight practice of Vikings training camp, though the move is primarily precautionary according to Tomasson. The 30-year-old veteran collected 116 tackles and four sacks while playing with the Cardinals last season, and he figures to step into a starting role alongside Eric Kendricks with Minnesota. Hicks' absence to start training camp should provide additional reps for inside linebackers Blake Lynch and rookie Brian Asamoah.

Officially signs with Vikings Hicks signed a two-year, $12 million contract with the Vikings on Tuesday.
Impact Hicks was released by the Cardinals last week, but he's in line to take on a starting role in the Vikings' defense in 2022. The 29-year-old topped 100 tackles during each of his three seasons in Arizona, most recently recording 116 tackles (75 solo), four sacks, five pass defenses, a forced fumble and two fumble recoveries across 17 appearances in 2021.

Another productive campaign Hicks accrued 116 tackles, five pass defenses, four sacks, two fumble recoveries and one forced fumble in 17 games during the 2021 season.
Impact It marked Hicks' third consecutive campaign in the Arizona desert with at least 100 tackles, but they occurred at slower pace (6.8 per game) than the previous two seasons (7.4 in 2020, 9.4 in 2019). Even though he has one year remaining on his contract, he's also looking over his shoulder at two recent first-round picks at his position. Second-year pro Isaiah Simmons stepped into a more prominent role this season and also racked up 105 tackles, while rookie Zaven Collins saw fewer and fewer snaps as the weeks passed by. Hicks acknowledged to Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site after the team's wild-card loss to the Rams that Simmons and Collins are the future at inside linebacker, meaning the seven-year veteran could find himself elsewhere in the fall.
