everlong Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/9274/teddy-bridgewater Currently on the reserve/PUP list, Bridgewater isn't eligible to play within the next five games. It does sound like he will be available thereafter, however, and if Sam Bradford's troublesome left knee becomes a bigger issue during that timeframe, Bridgewater could become a fallback option for the Vikings.

Xmad Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 He's not gonna play this season. They'll leave him on the PUP and let his contract toll to 2018. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should/would piss him off. And can you stay on PUP if you are healthy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see why it would piss him off. Another full year to make sure he's 100% healthy and to give him the best shot possible to earn the job in 2018, because I doubt he will be by the time he's ready to come off the PUP this year. You can stay on the PUP if the team decides you're not ready. I'm probably wrong on that though. Plus I'm 99% sure the vikings want to have a QB under contract in 2018 as leverage in case they want to keep Bradford, this is going to be a hell of a decision for the vikings FO to make next year.

If hes healthy and they leave him on PUP, then 100% he should be livid. Costing him money, if he is dinged than I get keep him on PUP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he’s healthy he has every right to be pissed off. Heck, there’s rumors in Minnesota that he’s already pissed off about being put on the pup.

tom cody Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Be nice to see him back but I think the Vikings may rest him the rest of the season and get him back fresh and healthy for 2018. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The comparisons were after their rookie season or pre-draft. Cant imagine one will make the comparison right after Teddy comes back and this is coming from a bonafide Teddy fan and not a fan of Carr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, they had to do a "Carr v Bridgewater V2" thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the only comparison I can ever remember requiring two threads. It was seriously never ending until the injury. The debate started after they were drafted and through their first and up to their second seasons...it was just never ending. I never thought that Vikings fans jumped the shark or anything by their backing of Teddy B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
