Minnesota Vikings star Christian Darrisaw is quietly on track for a major 2025 comeback after tearing his ACL last season. The franchise left tackle is already back on the field and could be ready by Week 1 — just nine months post-injury. With a revamped interior line and advanced analytics backing his All-Pro potential, Darrisaw is poised to anchor the Vikings’ protection for rookie QB J.J. McCarthy. CBS Sports sees him as one of the top bounce-back candidates to watch this year.
