Vikings to Face Former QB Culpepper Sunday

Posted by Matt Loede on November 15th, 2007 filed in News

Daunte Culpepper is starting against his former team when the Raiders play the Vikings at the Metrodome on Sunday.  Culpepper was chosen to start over Josh McCown, who did not practice yesterday for the Raiders because of a bruised thigh.  Oakland coach Lane Kiffin of Bloomington says starting against his old team is an incentive for Culpepper, who was traded to Miami in the spring of 2006.  He signed with Oakland in July and is making his fifth start of the season.
