Zimmer Not Publicly Announcing Vikings Week 1 Quarterback

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — Minnesota Vikings fans will have to wait until Sunday to find out who the team’s Week 1 quarterback is.

Coach Mike Zimmer said Wednesday he is not publicly announcing whether Sam Bradford or Shaun Hill will start. Zimmer said he will tell the team when he has made his decision. Bradford and Hill are expected to split the first-team reps in practice this week. Both are preparing as if they will be the starter.

Hill was listed as the team’s starter when the Vikings released their first depth chart Tuesday, with Bradford as the back-up.
