Case Keenum limited in practice; Zimmer acting coy about Sunday's Vikings quarterback

Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer remained coy about Sunday's quarterback situation, not naming Case Keenum the starter.
Keenum was listed as "limited" in practice Wednesday because of a chest issue.

being "coy"? When your backup is injured/limited, maybe you are weighing the options and haven't made a decision yet. That isn't coy.

I am sure they, once again, tried to get him to open up on it and he wouldnt so they had to say something.

I love when he commented a while back that he wouldn't discuss player performance with the reporters. They constantly try to get his public opinion on how a guy is doing, what he did wrong... It just flies in the face of decency and the concept of leadership.

Doesn't Teddy have to be activated before he can possibly start?

I believe he is still on the PUP exemption list and not on the active roster. So yes, he would have to be activated and someone else waived.

Which makes me wonder, did everyone travel? If Adams (or someone like that) had been left home, it would lead me to think he would be waived. So that leaves Bradford going to IR?

Not sure it requires wit given it is the default response for most minnesota writers as well.

No because Sendejo is suspended.
