Sam Bradford

Most of us are aware of the injury issues that Bradford has had to deal with so far in his NFL career.  Some don’t like how he performs.

I get that but he was on some not so good St. Louis Rams teams, he also dealt with injury issues.  He then went to the Philadelphia Eagles, got injured there.  He eventually landed with the Minnesota Vikings where he was a last minute replacement for the severely injured Teddy Bridgewater.

Then after a great season opening performance against the New Orleans Saints last year, he got injured again.  He struggled to get back to his old self.

Then the Vikings were done with him and he was a free agent once again.  The Cardinals came calling.

While some believed he was picked up because that was all that was left, the truth is as long as he is healthy, he can play.  He’s better than the alternative of Stanton or Gabbert.
