Mike Zimmer played coy about his starting middle linebacker last week, telling the media he didn’t want to tip off the 49ers as to his lineup.
With game time approaching, Zimmer has dropped the veil of secrecy and revealed that Gerald Hodges will be the starting Mike for the Vikings when game time rolls around at 9:20 CT tonight.
Not exactly a shock given that Audie Cole already let this cat out of the bag to the media last week.
Zimmer explained to KFAN’s Dan Barreiro why he chose to go with Hodges at the Mike over Cole and rookie Eric Kendricks.
