Teddy Bridgewater was hurt diving for a first down during the third quarter of the Broncos game against the Bengals. Upon hitting the ground he did not move. Officials quickly called an injury timeout. During the break Bridgewater’s facemask was removed from his helmet and he was slid onto a backboard and stretchered off the field.
