Teddy Bridgewater Confirmed As Week 17 Starter
2 years agoMiami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (knee) will officially start against the New England Patriots in Week 17 after Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) was ruled out. Bridgewater saw some action earlier this season, mainly in Weeks 4 and 6. Between those two games, he went 37-for-57 with three touchdowns, three interceptions, 21 rushing yards, and five sacks. This week, he'll go up against a Patriots defense that has been stingy against opposing quarterbacks. With that said, the unit will be without Jack Jones (knee) and Marcus Jones (concussion), who have been ruled out, and possibly Jonathan Jones (chest) and Jalen Mills (groin), both listed as questionable. As a result, Bridgewater ranks as a fringe top-24 option and is only relevant in leagues where you can start multiple quarterbacks.
