Minnesota Vikings quarterback Sam Bradford said the knee injury that kept him out of Week 2's loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers came on a non-contact play.

"I felt it when it happened," Bradford told reporters Wednesday. "I honestly didn't think it was that big of a deal, and then the longer the game went on, it started to feel just a little bit worse and a little worse. Woke up Tuesday, and it just didn't feel very good."

An MRI showed the ligaments in Bradford's knee were structurally sound, but he was nonetheless held out of Sunday's 26-9 loss.
