Sources out there are saying Minn. Vikings are signing him to their practice squad. IMO with Cassel being out for some time and Bridgewaters ankle sprained, he might have a shot to get onto the active roster.

Let's hope so. He deserves a shot.

He got a shot with the Colts. A good shot. They basically drafted him to be Luck's career backup.

Vikings just signed McLeod Bethel-Thompson to the PS earlier this week too. He would be Ponder's backup if both Cassel & Teddy can't go. Harnish is merely a PS player

What the hell is a McLeod Bethel-Thompson?

It is a Temple where folks go to pray for washed up telephone directory companies....Built and named for one of the few Illinois Governors that didn't go to prison.

It's who we would have played if Presbyterian had said no.

pretty cool, he'll be around Coach Kill and Coach Z too

I think it's something you can get at HARDEES.

That is great news for Chandler!

I would think it would be unlikely he would actually WANT to be around HWSNBN. I mean why would he? That's the guy who didn't want to play Chandler.

For those of you who dismissed Chandler as "not NFL material" or "looks like his NFL career is finished" I have this for you.

Go Chandler!

Chandler Harnish in 2011 "Me and coach Kill's relationship was more of a father-son type thing, and me and coach Doeren are more friends. That's nothing against coach Kill; me and coach Kill are still great friends" and CH has made other similar statements.

CH is excellent at handling interviews. I still take some of this with a grain of salt. But whatever. I would say none of us will ever REALLY know how CH truly feels.

I just went to the vikings web site. They have a brief article about the Harnish signing. He is now listed on their PS.

CH "excited for the opportunity"

I am not a Vikings fan but I AM a Chandler Harnish fan. I am happy he got the call.

Vikings promoted QB Chandler Harnish from practice squad to active roster, a sign Teddy Bridgewater will not start tonight.

Well that didn't take very long!

Seems like the NFL is much more about being in the right place at the right time then anything else.

Not a bad gig to get paid to be the warm body

Here's to Ponder getting rocked in the first quarter! That's right...haters gonna hate!

Plus he gets three weeks of full pay, which works out to somewhere in the 60k range, if my math is right.

Is this game on CBS or NFL Network? Is says CBS/NFL on the espn score thing.
