Head Coach Mike Zimmer said that the Vikings will continue to fight and find ways to win football games in 2016, even without Teddy Bridgewater in the huddle.
With Bridgewater being placed on IR after suffering a season-ending knee injury Tuesday, the Vikings are facing 16 games without their third-year quarterback. Next in line is Shaun Hill, entering his 15th NFL season.
“This is Shaun Hill’s team right now,” former quarterback Sage Rosenfels told Vikings.com.
Rosenfels, who served primarily as a backup during his 11-season career and spent some time in Minnesota, said Hill’s experience in the league and with the Vikings will be an advantage if he is handed the reins in Bridgewater’s absence.
