Bradford's knee required an MRI. Per Mort, there's "guarded optimism but concern" about it.

Re: 2017 Season General Comments (pressers, practice notes,
Vikings still optimistic that Sam Bradford will play vs. Steelers
The source said that the MRI did not reveal any specific damage but that scans do not always offer a clear picture in a knee that has undergone multiple ACL repairs.
It is the same knee that underwent ACL repairs in 2013 and 2014, when Bradford was with the Rams.
Bradford has been listed as a limited participant on the team's practice reports all week, but the source said the thought was that Bradford would be able to play when the Vikings visit the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.
Case Keenum is the backup and has gotten an increased workload in practice this week.
The fact that the Vikings did not elevate quarterback Kyle Sloter from the practice squad seems to support the guarded optimism about Sunday's status, but the team has until 4 p.m. ET Saturday to make a roster move.

The offensive line finally protects him at a halfassed decent level and THEN he gets injured. Sure.

Diggs fined $6k for his punt. smh NFL. Announcer said about $500, I guess inflation has really kicked in!

Re: 2017 Season General Comments (pressers, practice notes,
Barr, Bradford, Rhodes all questionable for Sunday. You know, nobody important.

We really got lucky that there weren't any significant injuries last week. Hopefully those three will all be ok.dead_poet wrote:Barr, Bradford, Rhodes all questionable for Sunday. You know, nobody important.

Sam Bradford says plan is to practice today. Feels better. Chances to play Sunday? Like to think good, but depends how knee responds.

Re: 2017 Season General Comments (pressers, practice notes,
Why do you say it looks like Keenum this week? If anything this seems like very good news. I'd almost lean more towards Bradford. He said it just didnt feel right last week but he feels better now. We'll see.808vikingsfan wrote: [VIDEO]Sam Bradford going through his reps during the open portion of practice on Wednesday

Re: 2017 Season General Comments (pressers, practice notes,
I know it's just a couple of throws but if you watch the video, he's moving really slow and careful. Would be nice to see him moving like how Keenum is at normal speed.Pondering Her Percy wrote: Why do you say it looks like Keenum this week? If anything this seems like very good news.
