Teddy Bridgewater taking measured approach in another shot at free agency

Everyone is hitting up “Radio Row” in Miami ahead of Super Bowl LIV, with Alvin Kamara discussing his contract status and New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton appearing on the NFL Network set on Thursday. Another familiar face was backup quarterback Teddy Bridgewater, who spoke with SiriusXM NFL Radio on Wednesday.

Bridgewater acknowledged that he’s enjoyed his time in New Orleans, but he can’t afford to let his personal feelings cloud his judgment when it comes to deciding his financial future. While he did choose to return to the Saints as one of the league’s top-paid backups last summer, he should have a stronger market in free agency this year after winning all five of his starts in 2019.
