What’s Next for Teddy Bridgewater? 3 minutes read Former Minnesota Vikings quarterback Teddy Bridgewater incurred a true-blue mediocre year in 2020. Per Pro Football Focus, he was the NFL’s 29th-best quarterback. Via QBR, Bridgewater checked in as the league’s 17th-ranked passer. And on passer rating, he placed at No. 22 in rankings. Those rankings collectively anoint Bridgewater as the league’s 22nd or 23rd-best quarterback. That is probably not effective enough to warrant another audition as a team’s clear-cut franchise quarterback of the future. Players encounter mediocre or down seasons, but Bridgewater has never had an ultra-productive campaign. Bridgewater displays clutch, winning qualities in spots – like 2015 in Minnesota or 2019 with New Orleans – but he is not a prototypical franchise stalwart when the numbers tell the story.
