Teddy Bridgewater underwent successful surgery to repair his injured left knee today.
Bridgewater dislocated his knee and completely tore his ACL and suffered other structural damage last Tuesday during a non-contact drill at practice.
“I got a call from the doctor today, and it was good,” head coach Mike Zimmer said.
The Vikings say Bridgewater is expected to make a full recovery, but the injury was severe enough that he might not be ready to resume playing football before the start of the 2017 NFL season.
I'm told Teddy Bridgewater had his knee surgery this morning and is now recovering well. Long road ahead, but he has a positive attitude
