Just six players remain from Case Keenum's lone season with the Vikings. He has worked with the Vikings' current head coach, passing game coordinator and quarterbacks coach — in Washington, not in Minnesota. Assistant player performance director Derik Keyes is the only member of the Vikings' staff still remaining from 2017, when Keenum became the improbable leader of the team's fated run to the NFC Championship Game.
And yet, there's a fondness for Keenum, formed during his 10 months with the Vikings, that still lingers in Minnesota.
"I spent a lot of time with him," said wide receiver Adam Thielen, who grew close with Keenum in a team Bible study.
