Minnesota Vikings quarterback Teddy Bridgewater is "feeling much better" and reported to the Vikings facility on Monday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Bridgewater exited Sunday's victory over the St. Louis Rams after taking a vicious hit from Lamarcus Joyner while he was sliding at the end of a scramble.

Rapoport added that Bridgewater was feeling well enough to go out to dinner with his family, but despite the encouraging news, it is far too early to speculate about his status for Week 10.

Shaun Hill would get the start in the event Bridgewater is not cleared.

Fantasy impact: Bridgewater had a rough going against a Rams defense that is imposing when it is on, tallying 144 yards, an interception and a rushing touchdown before exiting in the fourth quarter.

However, stability at the quarterback position allows fantasy owners to predict game scripts and the distribution throughout the offense. Bridgewater's presence is a good thing for the likes of Stefon Diggs, even though he was held to his lowest receiving yardage total of the season in Week 9.

If Bridgewater suits up, he is a mid-range QB2 with upside for Week 10's matchup with the Oakland Raiders. Diggs would remain in WR2 territory with his starting quarterback under center and a WR3/flex if Hill gets the nod.
