Bridgewater meets with Dolphins; no deal done

The Miami Dolphins met with free-agent quarterback Teddy Bridgewater on Wednesday evening, but no deal was announced at the meeting's conclusion.

Bridgewater likely will have to decide between staying in New Orleans as a backup and potentially a long-term option to replace Drew Brees when he retires or leaving for Miami, where he would have an opportunity to start in 2019.

ESPN's Dianna Russini reported that Bridgewater has a bigger offer from Miami, and her sources say if the Dolphins increase their offer by $1 million to $2 million, the Saints will have to bow out.
