This doesn't mean Keenum won't return to Minnesota, however, Keenum will draw interest from other teams in search for a quarterback. The new league year opens March 14, so expect teams to contact Keenum then.

Keenum in 2017 had 3,547 passing yards, 22 TDs, and 7 INTs. He led the Vikings to the NFC championship game where they lost to the Eagles 38-7.

This will also fuel the fire of the Vikings targeting free agent quarterback Kirk Cousins. In early December, Paul Allen of KFAN Minneapolis reports the Vikings are "number one with a bullet" on Cousins' wish list.
