FireChan Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 I guess that's why they traded for Bradford. Teddy's career could be done. Shame. Such a young guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 That's terrible!! Teddy is a kid that's had a tough life. By all accounts he's a great kid too. I wish him the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted January 27, 2017 Author Share Posted January 27, 2017 Apparently they think the injury needs a full 18 months to heal, which puts him at March 2018. I believe that he will be an FA, unless Minnesota picks up his 5th year option. Dicey ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webster Guy Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Terrible news. What a bummer for the kid and the Minny fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokestradamus Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 From the moment it happened, my expectation was that it would likely be career-ending. He was always likely to miss 2017, even just as a precautionary measure. If he takes the field again, it'll be a happy day. Just not filled with confidence that it ever happens.

While he did eventually come back, he was no where near the player he was prior and had that injury plague him rest of his limited career. Hopefully Bridgewater isnt done, but this obviously looks like a very uphill battle to just get back, let alone keep getting better as QB. Its not like he was at the peak of his development yet before the injury. So not only does he have to figure out how to get back on the field, he still has to work hard to be a good QB.

NoSaint Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 for all they are mentioned during contract negotiations and such its incredibly rare that you see the career ending injuries, but looking like it could be one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

switz1610 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 I trade our last pick for him. Let him rehab, learn the offense and see what happens in a few years. Many posters on here have compared his and Tyrod's game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatsFanNH Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 That sucks I hope he comes back as he had the mackkngs of being a good NFL starter and potentially a Franchise QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatsFanNH Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 So does make him a bust? IMO No. the injury is not his fault and he showed every sign of being a good NFL QB. This just makes him one bad luck person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
