Minnesota Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer has confirmed that Matt Cassel will be his side's starting quarterback for the 2014 season.
Cassel, Christian Ponder and first-round Draft pick Teddy Bridgewater were in a three-way battle during training camp to win the role, but the veteran managed to secure the job.
Zimmer told reporters: "I told the team this morning that Matt Cassel will be the starter going into the 2014 season.
"Matt did not do anything to lose the job this pre-season. I think he's played great. The team has a lot of confidence in him. They feel good about his veteran leadership and presence."
The Vikings face the St Louis Rams in their season opener on September 7.
