Teddy Bridgewater cleared to practice for Vikings, per reports
Teddy Bridgewater could be nearing a return to action for the Minnesota Vikings.
The quarterback has been cleared to practice for the first time since suffering a gruesome knee injury last August, according to multiple reports. ESPN was the first to report the news.
Bridgewater remains on the physically unable to perform list, though ESPN said the team intends to have him practice Wednesday. The Vikings would have a three-week window to decide whether to promote him to the active roster or put him on season-ending injured reserve.
The Vikings acquired Sam Bradford to fill in for Bridgewater last season. He has missed Minnesota' last five games, however, as Case Keenum has led the team to a share of the lead in the NFC North.
