Sources: QB Teddy Bridgewater expected to sign with Buccaneers

Veteran quarterback Teddy Bridgewater is visiting Tampa today and is expected to sign with the Buccaneers, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Bridgewater, 32, last suited up for the Detroit Lions in December 2024, coming out of retirement to serve as Jared Goff's backup. Bridgewater did not appear in a regular-season game. In the playoffs, he completed his only pass attempt for 3 yards in a 45-31 loss against the Washington Commanders in the divisional round.

For the Bucs, Bridgewater would help shore up the quarterback room, with Michael Pratt dealing with a back injury.
