Report: Vikings Believe Sam Bradford Will Return from Knee Injury for Week 3

The Minnesota Vikings reportedly have faith Sam Bradford will return from his knee injury in time for their Week 3 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

"The belief was ... this was a one-week injury for Bradford," Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported on Good Morning Football. "The ACL is fine. The other ligaments are fine. This really was just a swelling and discomfort issue from taking a shot to his knee last week.

"The only thing is, they really don't know how his knee is going to respond to treatment, how his knee is going to handle getting worked on all week and when he'll be able to fully bend it like he needs to.
