Teddy Bridgewater is pretty much exactly what you want in an ideal backup quarterback in today's NFL. He's got plenty of starting experience, he's a great leader, he makes smart decisions with the football when his number is called, and he adds tremendous value to a quarterback room with his understanding of the game.
He's probably proven himself to be way too good for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to cut after the 2025 preseason, regardless of Kyle Trask's previous draft status.
Bridgewater only completed six passes in the Buccaneers' preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but two of those passes went for touchdowns.
