Vikings TE has high praise for Teddy Bridgewater after QB’s first practice
Kyle Rudolph seems encouraged to see Teddy Bridgewater back on the field.
After the Minnesota Vikings quarterback practiced with the team for the first time in over a year, Rudolph had some rather lofty praise for him.
“I thought he looked like Joe Montana,” said the Vikings tight end of Bridgewater, per Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press. “He was excited. He was smiling, bringing energy to practice.”
It has been about 14 months since Bridgewater’s catastrophic knee injury, but the signs right now are definitely encouraging. While the 24-year-old likely won’t be winning four Super Bowls, he believes he will return to game action at some point during the 2017 season, and it sounds like Bridgewater’s presence is an uplifting one for his teammates on the Vikings as well.
