Broncos quarterback Case Keenum knows a thing or two about the Vikings starting defense. Unfortunately for Keenum, the Vikings starting defense knows a thing or two about Case Keenum.
Keenum handled a pair of drives in his new team’s preseason opener against Minnesota, and neither drive generated a single first down.
Keenum, who became the starter in Minnesota after Sam Bradford suffered a knee injury in a Week One Monday night game against the Saints, completed one of four passes for five yards.
Backup Paxton Lynch promptly threw an interception that gave Minnesota a short field, allowing the visiting team to score on a touchdown pass thrown by former Denver starter Trevor Siemian.
The Vikings lead 14-0, in a game that matters only to those who have money riding on the outcome.
