With the Minnesota Vikings reporting to Training Camp in Mankato in just twelve days, it's time to take a look at what the team has going for it as they begin preparations for the 2015 NFL season. We'll start where most NFL teams start, and that's at the quarterback position.
As we go through all of these, we'll take a look at how the Vikings looked at the start of the 2014 season, how they looked at the end of the 2014 season, and how they look now.
How They Started Last Year: Matt Cassel (starter), Teddy Bridgewater, Christian Ponder
How They Finished Last Year: Bridgewater (starter), Ponder (Cassel on injured reserve)
How They Head Into Camp: Bridgewater (starter), Shaun Hill, Taylor Heinecke, Mike Kafka
The plan for last year was for Bridgewater to be able to hang back for a year behind Cassel and get a feel for the NFL game.
