Lands on IR
The Vikings placed Muse (hand) on injured reserve Wednesday, Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Analysis: Head coach Kevin O'Connell said Muse suffered a minor hand fracture during Sunday's win over the 49ers, during his recovery of an onside kick. The depth tight end will need to spend at least four games on IR, making his earliest possible return date Oct. 24 versus the Rams.

Past injury
Muse (undisclosed) was left off the Vikings' injury report Wednesday ahead of Sunday's Week 1 matchup with the Giants.
Analysis: Muse was dealing with an undisclosed injury toward the end of August, but it now appears that he's moved past the issue. The third-year tight end out of South Carolina is expected to serve primarily as a special-teamer in 2024, as he did the last two seasons.

Dealing with undisclosed injury
Muse has not practiced in recent weeks with an undisclosed injury, The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Muse appeared set to win the No. 3 tight end role, but he's now dealing with an injury, while Robert Tonyan returned to practice. Muse had a strong first two preseason games, but now his status for Week 1 is in question.

Making case for roster spot
Muse had three receptions for 19 yards on three targets in Saturday's preseason win over Cleveland.
Analysis: Muse appears set to win a roster spot with Robert Tonyan still out with a back injury. Muse could factor into the offense early in the season as a second or third receiving tight end if T.J. Hockenson misses games while working his way back from a torn ACL.

Staying in Twin Cities
Muse re-signed with the Vikings on Tuesday.
Analysis: Muse was set to be an exclusive rights free agent, but he was able to come to an agreement with Minnesota before the start of the new league year. The 25-year-old tight end only appeared in two games last season, making one catch for 22 yards on his lone target.

Plays two offensive snaps in 2023
Muse appeared in two games during the 2023 season, catching his only target for a 22-yard gain.
Analysis: The 2022 seventh-round pick secured the first catch of his NFL career Week 18 against the Lions. In total, Muse played just two offensive snaps in 2023 and another 29 on special teams. He didn't see action until after T.J. Hockenson suffered a season-ending torn ACL in Week 16. Muse will compete for a reserve role next summer. He's scheduled to be an exclusive rights free agent.

Will be available at Detroit
Muse (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game at Detroit, Matthew Coller of PurpleInsider.com reports.
Analysis: Muse is on track to suit up for his second game of the season in Week 18. He played exclusively on special teams in Week 17, and it's reasonable to expect he'll play a similar role Sunday.

Won't play Sunday
Muse (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 8 contest in Green Bay.
Analysis: Muse is a healthy scratch with all of T.J. Hockenson, Josh Oliver and Johnny Mundt active and ahead of him on the TE depth chart. Muse has yet to play in a game this season, and his next chance to make his 2023 debut will come next Sunday in Atlanta.

Out Sunday
Muse (coach's decision) is inactive ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers.
Analysis: The 24-year-old has yet to see the field this season, with his next opportunity coming Oct. 8 against Kansas City. Muse appeared in 10 games last year, playing all of his snaps on special teams.

Out Week 1
Muse (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Muse turned in a strong preseason and training camp to make the 53-man roster but is behind T.J. Hockenson, Josh Oliver and Johnny Mundt on the team's tight end depth chart.

Catches TD in preseason debut
Muse had three receptions on four targets for 10 yards, including a four-yard touchdown catch, in Thursday's preseason loss at Seattle.
Analysis: Muse is mostly known as a blocker and special-teams player, but he showed some red zone ability with a towering grab over a defender for a touchdown. He helped his case to win a final reserve role on the roster but may have to settle for the practice squad.

Inks another deal with Minnesota
Muse signed a reserve/future contract with the Vikings on Monday.
Analysis: Muse bounced back and forth between Minnesota's active roster and practice squad this season. Over 10 appearances, the rookie seventh-rounder served as a core special-teamer while playing just two offensive snaps all season. Muse will look to carve out a larger role on offense heading into the 2023 campaign.

Back with Vikings
Muse was signed to the Vikings' practice squad Saturday, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Waived by Minnesota
The Vikings waived Muse on Friday, Chris Tomasson of the Pioneer Press reports.
Analysis: Muse played exclusively on special teams across 10 appearances with the Vikings this year but has been waived to make room for Irv Smith (ankle), who's expected to be activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against Chicago. Per Tomasson, Muse will be a candidate to join Minnesota's practice squad if he clears waivers.

Joins 53-man roster
Muse was signed off the team's practice squad Monday, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
Analysis: Muse has appeared in four games for the Vikings this season, primarily contributing on special teams while also operating as the team's No. 3 tight end. With his official move to the active roster, he should make his fifth appearance of the season with Minnesota on Thursday against the Patriots.

Signs with active roster
Muse signed a contract with the Vikings on Saturday.
Analysis: The Vikings needed a third tight end and did have an empty roster spot. Muse has been active for the three games this season, but he's played a total of two offensive snaps and 20 total during that stretch.

Returns to practice squad
The Vikings reverted Muse to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Analysis: Minnesota elevated Muse for the second time this season prior to Sunday's Week 9 win over the Commanders. Though the 23-year-old didn't log any snaps on offense, he did see four special-teams snaps. Even if he's elevated again, Muse is unlikely to see much (if any) work on offense with T.J. Hockenson and Johnny Mundt ahead of him on the depth chart.

Bumped up to active roster
Muse was elevated from the Vikings' practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Commanders.
Analysis: Muse will be elevated for the second time this season, the first of which came in Week 5. He played only two snaps and will have a minimal role on offense behind T.J. Hockenson and Johnny Mundt.

Returns to practice squad
Muse reverted to the Vikings' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: Muse received the promotion with Ben Ellefson out with a groin injury. The rookie tight end played six snaps on special teams, but he did not record any stats. With Ellefson now on IR, it's possible Muse could be elevated to the active roster in Week 6 against the Dolphins.

Elevated to active roster
The Vikings elevated Muse on Saturday from their practice squad to their active roster for Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Muse, a rookie seventh-round pick, caught four passes for 40 yards during the preseason and landed a spot on the Vikings' practice squad after going unclaimed through waivers at the end of August. Minnesota recently placed Ben Ellefson (groin) on injured reserve, so Muse will compete with Johnny Mundt for backup snaps behind Irv Smith.

Signs practice squad deal with MIN

Waived by Minnesota
Muse was waived by the Vikings on Tuesday, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
Analysis: Muse was drafted in the seventh round of the 2022 NFL Draft by the Vikings, but he'll ultimately fail to make their final roster after catching four passes for 40 yards this preseason. The tight end will likely join the Vikings' practice squad if he goes unclaimed on waivers.
