Teddy Bridgewater spent two seasons with the New Orleans Saints and made quite the impression on Dan Campbell during that time.
On the field, Bridgewater went 5-0 as a fill-in starter for Drew Bress in 2019 after Brees broke his thumb early in the season. Off it, he helped nurture the Saints' skill position talent, taking the team's young receivers through extra gameplan meetings to help speed up their development on offense.
"When you’re with somebody for two years, you get a really good feel of what they’re capable of and the way they’re wired, the way he thinks, and so I’ve seen him work," Campbell said Tuesday before the Lions' first of two joint practices with the New York Giants.
