Vikings keep Keenum as starter vs. Redskins, Bridgewater to dress

Teddy Bridgewater may be off IR, but he's not quite ready for live action.

The Minnesota Vikings activated the quarterback off injured reserve Wednesday, but Case Keenum will draw the start in their Week 10 matchup with the Washington Redskins, head coach Mike Zimmer announced.

Zimmer assured Bridgewater is healthy enough to play, but the team is still "trying to get him ready to where everybody feels comfortable with him," Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Bridgewater will dress for the game and act as Keenum's backup.

Zimmer was asked if he's confident in Bridgewater if Keenum were to go down on Sunday.

"100 percent," he responded, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.
