Teddy Bridgewater

Teddy Bridgewater's week centred on Detroit's backup quarterback race, which Pride Of Detroit framed as a highlight of the preseason finale. Jeremy Reisman covered that competition directly, while Erik Schlitt examined which Lions quarterback is the favourite for the backup job heading into that final exhibition game. A camp-survey discussion from Reisman asked readers who had been the biggest surprise of Lions training camp, a piece in which quarterback performances were under scrutiny. Elsewhere, Turf Show Times speculated that the Lions could be among the teams with trade interest in Rams quarterback Stetson Bennett, a move that would bear on the depth chart. No final decision on the backup job has been reported.
