LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Teddy Bridgewater is back in the NFL.
The former University of Louisville star and Sugar Bowl MVP has signed a one-year deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to multiple reports, ending speculation about his coaching future at Miami Northwestern High School.
Bridgewater, 32, passed a physical during a visit with the Bucs on Tuesday and will join a quarterback room led by Baker Mayfield, who returned to practice this week after missing time with a minor hand injury. Kyle Trask, Michael Pratt, and Connor Bazelak round out the group, but with Pratt sidelined and Trask lacking game experience, Bridgewater brings a much-needed dose of veteran poise and perspective.
"He'd bring us a wealth of experience at that spot," Tampa Bay head coach Todd Bowles said Tue
