In a weekend all NFL fans expected to be dominated by endless roster cuts, it was a team adding to their roster that really created a buzz. After losing starting quarterback Teddy Bridgewater to a nasty knee injury, the Vikings had little choice but to make a move for a quarterback and they found a trade partner in Doug Pederson and the Eagles. Minnesota agreed to send a 2017 first round pick and a 2018 fourth-rounder to Philadelphia in exchange for Sam Bradford.
Though it may not take effect until Week Two, Bradford will be the Vikings’ starter as long as he can remain healthy.
