Sam Bradford will not be ending his career contrary to what the early opinions were.
Sam Bradford is set to hit the free agent market after spending the last two seasons with the Minnesota Vikings. After proving he was the best pure passer on the roster, he suffered a knee injury in the first week of the year that derailed his entire 2017 season.
But what was described as a career-ender quickly subsided as he returned to the field to be the team's backup in the playoffs. Now, he has his sights set on a new opportunity for 2018, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.
"He did have that knee surgery back in November," Pelissero reported. "Dr. James Andrews went in there to clean up a bone spur, clean out some cartilage, just try to get the joint to calm down. Now Andrews has told Bradford the joint itself is sound, that the ligaments are intact, that there's not reason for there to be concern moving forward."
Bradford joined the Vikings via trade when Teddy Bridgewater tore his ACL in August 2016. The Vikings sent a 2016 first round pick and 2017 fourth round pick to the Philadelphia Eagles in that deal.
