Biography
Teddy Bridgewater's career has been defined by resilience. A first-round pick out of Louisville in 2014, Bridgewater earned a Pro Bowl selection in his second NFL season with the Vikings before a devastating knee injury in a 2016 practice nearly ended his career.
His comeback — first as a backup, then as a capable starter for Denver, Carolina, Miami, and Detroit — stands as one of the most remarkable recoveries in league history. Now back in Detroit, Bridgewater continues to demonstrate the poise and football intelligence that made him such a prized prospect a decade ago.
