Teddy Bridgewater has confirmed this time, it’s it.
The 33-year-old quarterback announced via an Instagram post Monday that he is leaving the NFL for good after he stepped away from Lions on Sunday.
“This time it’s official 😭,” he wrote in the Instagram caption. “It’s so crazy 10 years ago around this time, I suffered one of the most gruesome knee injuries the game itself, it’s players and some doctors had ever seen. Everything football related since 2016 had been fueled by the “experts” predicting that I would never play football again. We really showed them by playing 10 more seasons! However, this wheel of mine can no longer deal with something so simple as standing around on the turf field. This thing just doesn’t recover the same way it did years ago so I rather officially hang it up.
