That is unfortunate, not so much because he is just so great and irreplaceable but because he is missing out on more time to develop in the superstar that he is capable of becoming. Its hard to get to concerned when you have Tom Johnson as a back up and Joseph is still in there.
According to two league sources, Vikings quarterback Teddy Bridgewater was held out with a sore shoulder on Thursday night. Had it been a regular season game, Bridgewater likely would have played, but coach Mike Zimmer made a late decision to hold Bridgewater out and start Shaun Hill, who went 10 of 17 for 129 yards in the team's win over Seattle.

Well that sucks...hope it was just a precaution and not something more serious.
I'm sure it is. Teddy practiced all week. None of the best guys said a lick about anything looking off or scaling back of his reps. Unless he slipped and cut his finger on a pair of scissors or something. But nobody with any competence/dexterity does that after 8 years old.

I was thinking they wanted to see how Hill would do against the ones as a Vikings backup.

Joel Stave threw all the passes for the first-team offense. Bridgewater involved only on running plays. #Vikings

Teddy Bridgewater did participate in practice today but did not throw a single pass, which is kind of important. Shaun Hill was not spotted.
