Earlier this week, we gave everyone the link to go and vote for Minnesota Vikings’ quarterback Case Keenum in an attempt to get him the FedEx Air Player of the Week Award for his 304-yard, four-touchdown performance against the Washington Redskins. Well, whether we had anything to do with it or not, apparently enough people thought that Keenum was worthy.
Keenum was named the winner of the award for Week 10, beating out both Jared Goff of the Los Angeles Rams and C.J. Beathard of the San Francisco 49ers.
This was the second time that Keenum had been nominated for the award this year, but the first time he emerged victorious. How did he celebrate? Why, by rewarding the big men up front, of course.
After QB Case Keenum was named FedEx Air Player of Week, he used his connections to get a box of Memphis ribs delivered today to each #Vikings offensive lineman (FedEx headquartered in Memphis). Keenum handed out the boxes to each lineman. They've protected Keenum well this year.

Hey, ribs are a pretty damn good reward. One of the best rewards, actually.
Congratulations to Case Keenum on winning the FedEx Air Player of the Week Award for Week 10 of the NFL season.
