Out due to illness
Bridgewater won't play in Saturday's preseason game against the Bills due to an illness, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
With No. 1 QB Baker Mayfield set to sit out in Tampa Bay's exhibition finale, Kyle Trask was expected to start, while Bridgewater was in line to enter the contest after him. Now that Bridgewater isn't available Saturday, Connor Bazelak will be tasked with handling any reps under center that don't go to Trask. Bridgewater put some decent tape together last Saturday versus the Steelers, completing six of 11 passes for 85 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions after signing with the team Aug. 5.

How do Teddy Bridgewater's measurables compare to other quarterbacks?
This section compares his draft workout metrics with players at the same position. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that metric and it would be considered average.
* The 40-Yard Dash metric is from his Pro Day. All others are from the NFL Combine.

On the heels of back-to-back seasons as a starter with Carolina (in 2020) and Denver (in 2021), Bridgewater headed to Miami last year to work behind Tua Tagovailoa. Concussion issues limited Tagovailoa to 13 games, so Bridgewater ended up making five appearances (two starts) for the Dolphins in which he completed 49 of 79 passes for 683 yards, four touchdowns and four interceptions. With Mike White now slated to back up Tagovailoa this season, Bridgewater, who turns 31 in November, remains among the more notable free-agent signal-callers still available.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Likely to retire in offseason
Bridgewater plans to retire after the 2023 season, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.
ANALYSIS
The 31-year-old quarterback nearly hung up his cleats after last season, but Lions heads coach Dan Campbell talked him into coming to Detroit to back up Jared Goff. With rookie Hendon Hooker close to joining the 53-man roster after recovering from knee surgery, however, Bridgewater may be phased out of that role before the end of the regular season. The 32nd overall pick by the Vikings in the 2014 Draft, Bridgewater made the Pro Bowl in 2015 before a knee injury derailed his career. He indicated he would like to go into coaching at the high-school level after retiring.
