Nnivolcm Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-teddy-bridgewater-agrees-to-terms-with-lions Quote The Lions have not hidden their interest in Teddy Bridgewater. The team let him know in March it wanted him as Jared Goff’s backup, gave him a “strong offer” in April and hosted him on a visit July 24. They finally have agreed to terms with the veteran quarterback, NFL Media reports. It reunites Bridgewater with head coach Dan Campbell, who was the Saints’ tight ends coach/assistant head coach in 2018-19 when Bridgewater was in New Orleans. Lions finally have a respectable, healthy, back up QB.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Want A Title Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 I am a bit surprised. For the most part, Nate Sudfeld has been solid even if he is the clear cut #2. The biggest beneficiary of this move might be Hendon Hooker. Having Jared Goff and Teddy Bridgewater as resources he can lean on should be pretty helpful for his development. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelKing728 Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Bridgewater a great guy to have in your lockerroom and is still a solid player, not even 31 yet. Should Goff go down, you're not screwed. He's a conservative QB, but very smart and accurate. Sometimes he trusts his abilities too much which lead to INTs, but they are few and far in between. Unfortunately, due to his conservative nature, so are TD passes. Good signing. While i can't root for your team, I'll certainly root for Teddy! Also, he's the best QB with the initials "T.B." currently lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lions017 Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Good. He's one of the better backup QB's (Top 10-12?) in the league and can absolutely start a game or two and give you a chance to win should Goff get hurt. No need to rush Hooker along mentally or physically. Raising the level of depth across the board is always a good idea. Bridgewater is almost certainly better than Sudfeld. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
