The Minnesota Vikings will play the Steelers without starting quarterback Sam Bradford, who is inactive with a knee injury. Case Keenum, who has 24 career starts with the Texans and Rams, will start in Bradford’s place. This is Keenum’s first season with the Vikings.
Bradford was limited in practice last week and his availability for the game was in doubt Saturday when the Vikings signed a quarterback from their practice squad to the active roster. Keenum is 9-15 as a starter and was 4-5 with the Rams last season.
The Steelers will be without starting defensive end Stephon Tuitt, who injured his biceps in the season opener against the Browns last week.
