Questionable to face Columbus Kallman (lower body) is questionable for Wednesday's match against Columbus.

Impact Kallman will be a late call for Wednesday's match as he is dealing with lower body issues but has yet to see improvement. Luckily for the team, he is a reserve player, starting in four of his nine appearances but mainly going unused. That said, even if he is fit, he will likely end up on the bench.

With a move to Music City, Kallman will be hoping to see significantly more opportunities to get onto the pitch.

Returns to bench Kallman (knee) is on the bench for Saturday's clash with Kansas City.

Still sidelined Kallman (knee) is out for Wednesday's trip to LAFC, according to the Minnesota injury report.

Impact Kallman will remain on the sideline for Wednesday's trip due to an ongoing knee injury. The defender has two more chances to return to the pitch before the playoffs.

Not playing Saturday Kallman (knee) has been ruled out of Saturday's match against San Jose.

Impact Kallman wasn't spotted in training earlier this week and has been ruled out once, but his absence is not going to alter many fantasy decisions since he hasn't made a league appearance since July 9.

SEPTEMBER 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Removed from injury report Kallman (undisclosed) is not on the injury report for Saturday's clash with Sporting Kansas City.

Doesn't train Friday Kallman (undisclosed) didn't train Friday and might be in doubt to face New England on Saturday, Andy Greder of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Impact The reasons behind Kallman's absence from training are unknown, but the defender will not affect many fantasy decisions if he's ruled out.

Played in cup match Kallman started and played 90 minutes during Tuesday's 3-1 U.S Open Cup win against Detroit City F.C.

Impact Kallman returned to the team after dealing with a family matter and played the full match Tuesday.

Out for family reasons Kallman was not involved in Saturday's defeat against the Sounders due to a family matter, the Pioneer Press' Andy Greder reported before the game.

Six clearances in start Kallman made a block, six clearances and won one of one tackles in Saturday's 1-1 draw against the Whitecaps.

Impact Kallman made his full season debut Saturday after recovering from an Achilles injury he suffered in February.

Taken off injury report Kallman (Achilles) is not listed in Minnesota's injury report for Saturday's clash against the Rapids.

Impact Kallman returned to training in some capacity with Minnesota this week, and Adrian Heath told Andy Greder of the Pioneer Press that he expects Kallman to be available for selection against Colorado on Saturday. He will want to challenge Michael Boxall and Miguel Tapias for a starting spot in central defense once he's back at full fitness.

In partial training Kallman (Achilles) was able to participate in parts of Tuesday's training session with Minnesota United, according to the Pioneer Press' Andy Greder.

MARCH 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Still a few weeks out Kallman (Achilles) is still roughly two weeks away from fitness, according to Minnesota United reporter Jacob Schneider on Tuesday.

Impact Kallman has missed his side's first two games of the season with a minor Achilles injury, and he is likely to remain sidelined for Saturday's clash against the Red Bulls as well. Michael Boxall and Miguel Tapias were the starting center-back pairing in the season opener, and Kallman will aim to be available by the Colorado match on March 18.

MARCH 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Training individually Kallman took part in light individual training Wednesday, Jacob Schneider reports.

Impact Kallman was active in training though only working on the side individually. The defender is making his way back from an Achilles injury, with the hope being he is able to return in mid-March, with eyes on a Mar. 11 clash with RBNY as one possible return date.

Injury not serious Kallman is dealing with an achilles injury that Minnesota manager Adrian Heath described as "nothing too bad," the Star Tribune's Jerry Zgoda reported Tuesday.

Dealing with injury Kallman missed Tuesday's training session with an injury and will be questionable for Saturday's season opener against FC Dallas, Andy Greder of the Pioneer Press reports.

Impact Kallman missed Minnesota's final preseason game due to injury, putting his availability for opening day in doubt this weekend. With Mikael Marques (undisclosed) also questionable and Bakaye Dibassy (quadriceps) still out, Miguel Tapias may be in line to start alongside Michael Boxall in central defense against Dallas.

FEBRUARY 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ends season as starter Kallman started in each of Minnesota's final eight games of the season after Bakaye Dibassy suffered a quad injury at the end of August.

Impact Kallman scored two goals and kept three clean sheets across 21 MLS appearances (16 starts) overall from central defense, but the 32-year-old should return to being the backup option in the position once Dibassy returns from his injury in 2023.
