Player Review: Linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel

Miami's pass rush has battled injuries through the season's first three months, but Andrew Van Ginkel has been a consistent force up front through 12 games. With four sacks, five runs stuffs, and 29 total tackles, he's consistently disrupted opposing offensive lines — on top of a pick-6 and six passes defended so far this season.Despite injuries, Miami defensive coordinator Vic Fangio leverages Van Ginkel's versatility in coverage and rushing the passer. The Dolphins entered the year with a fierce pass rush, but not many expected Van Ginkel to be fifth on the team in sacks.It was apparent that Miami had top-end talent entering the season, but unexpected stars are pushing this team toward the top of the playoff race.This clip originally aired on the podcast: Not So Secret Weapons: Miami's Unexpected "Main" Characters Through 13 WeeksAnother Dolphins Podcast is hosted by Joshua Houtz (@Houtz) and Jake Mendel (@JMendel94) with Marek Brave (@MBrave13) joining as a guest host.
