TAMPA — Vikings QB Sam Bradford was ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bucs with a knee injury.
That means Minnesota will start Bucs killer Case Keenum, who has beaten Tampa Bay each of the past two years with the Rams. Keenum has passed for three touchdowns of 43 yards or more in those games. In the Bucs' other 31 games since the start of 2015, all other opposing quarterbacks have totaled three touchdown passes of 43 yards or longer.
"We probably shouldn't be calling him a backup because he has beat us two years in a row," Bucs coach Dirk Koetter said.
