How are the Carolina Panthers looking at quarterback after an eventful offseason period that came with yet another big change?
The Carolina Panthers saw enough from Teddy Bridgewater in 2020 to determine he wasn’t going to be part of their long-term plans. Last year’s marquee free-agent signing was inconsistent at best under center during his first year with the franchise and his 0-8 record on game-winning or tying drives proved to be the final nail in his coffin.
Bridgewater’s limitations during his career were there for all to see before the Panthers gave him a three-year, $63 million deal with a $15 million signing bonus and $33 million guaranteed.
