Teddy Bridgewater ties career-high 4 TDs in Saints' win

NEW ORLEANS -- Teddy Bridgewater matched his career high with four touchdown passes on Sunday while throwing for 314 yards in the New Orleans Saints' 31-24 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The 26-year-old reached both of those milestones for the first time since recovering from a major 2016 knee injury suffered while with the Minnesota Vikings -- increasing both his future free-agency prospects and the Saints' Super Bowl hopes in the process.

The Saints (4-1) are now remarkably 3-0 with Bridgewater as their starter following Drew Brees' thumb surgery.
