Mike Zimmer: ‘No idea’ if Teddy Bridgewater will play in 2017
The Minnesota Vikings are still non-committal when it comes to the status of quarterback Teddy Bridgewater.
Bridgewater, who suffered a catastrophic knee injury prior to last season, is still very much a question mark for 2017, according to coach Mike Zimmer.

There were reports that Bridgewater would sit out all of 2017, but the team won’t go that far. It sounds like they genuinely don’t really know when he’ll be back and will simply let him rehab and progress at his own rate, which is probably wise.
