Detroit hosts free agent QB Bridgewater

The Detroit Lions hosted veteran quarterback TEDDY BRIDGEWATER on a visit on Monday. While no signing is imminent, Bridgewater is considered the top backup quarterback still on the market. The Lions return JARED GOFF as their unquestioned starter and the team also re-signed NATE SUDFELD to a one-year deal in free agency. The Lions spent a third-round pick on quarterback HENDON HOOKER in April’s NFL Draft, but he is expected to spend much of the season recovering from an ACL injury. Bridgewater makes sense as a backup option for a Lions team expected to contend for the NFC title this year.
