Injuries: Teddy Bridgewater could be back Week 10
Teddy Bridgewater is moving closer toward making his season debut for the
Minnesota Vikings.
Bridgewater, who missed all of last season and the first eight games of 2017 because of a devastating knee injury, could potentially play in Week 10 for the
Vikings, a source informed of the situation told NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport.
"The expectation now is
Teddy Bridgewater is healthy enough to return to the team and on the field after the bye [week]," Rapoport reported Sunday on
NFL GameDay Kickoff. "If that happens, expect him to be activated off the [physically unable to perform] list and then compete for the starting job. This is a player they consider to be their franchise quarterback. I would not be surprised, based on what I know, that he's under center soon."
As for
Sam Bradford, there's no timeline for his return from a knee injury that has sidelined him for a good portion of the season.
"It doesn't sound like
Sam Bradford will be ready soon," Rapoport said. "They do have the bye week coming up, but Bradford did not practice this past week. Last I checked in, he was still dealing with some knee pain that kept him off the field for most of this season. There is, at this point, no timeline for his return."
