Giants at Vikings: Sam Bradford now the centerpiece of Minnesota offense

Sam Bradford has never lived up to the expectations that come with being the first overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft by the St. Louis Rams (coached at the time by Steve Spagnuolo).

His lot through the first five years of his career was to play for mediocre to awful teams that were often in turmoil and to suffer knee injuries that cost him half of the 2013 season and all of 2014. Entering this season he was just 25-37-1 as a starting quarterback.

The Giants, of course, know Bradford well.
