Former quarterback Teddy Bridgewater is leaving his position as head football coach at Miami Northwestern High School and seeking a return to the NFL, according to multiple media reports on Monday.

Bridgewater’s Miami Northwestern exit comes three weeks after he was suspended for allegedly providing impermissible benefits to his players, including Uber rides, meals and recovery services. He also asked for fans to donate to help cover these type of expenses.

The 32-year-old confirmed the suspension in a Facebook post last month.

“The suspension came from MNW and it’s impossible to suspend someone who doesn’t work for you,” Bridgewater said. “So if im suspended from MNW im free to go to another school of my choice but IM NOT GOING ANYWHERE.

“And if it comes down to it, I will volunteer from the bleachers like I used to in 2018 and 2019 when no one had a problem.”

After joining Miami Northwestern in 2024, Bridgewater led his alma mater to its first state championship since 2019. The program heads into the season as the fourth-ranked team in the state, per to the Massey Ratings.

Bridgewater returned to the NFL as Jared Goff’s backup with the Detroit Lions in December but did not appear in a regular-season game. Bridgewater completed his only pass for 3 yards in the Lions’ divisional round loss to the Washington Commanders.

In 10 NFL seasons with the Minnesota Vikings (2014-15, 2017), New Orleans Saints (2018-19), Carolina Panthers (2020), Denver Broncos (2021), Miami Dolphins (2022) and Detroit (2023-24), Bridgewater completed 1,372 of 2,067 passes (66.4 percent) for 15,120 yards with 75 touchdowns and 47 interceptions. He added 844 rushing yards and 11 scores on the ground.

Bridgewater was named to the Pro Bowl in his second season after starting all 16 games for the Vikings and leading them to an 11-5 record.

He hasn’t started a game since 2022 with the Dolphins.

Stěžoval si na Procházkovo chování. Není šance, aby šel s Pereirou, říká konkurent české hvězdy

Tohle téma by se zřejmě vůbec neřešilo, kdyby se Procházka s Ulbergem skutečně utkali. Zápas byl údajně dohodnutý, nicméně druhý jmenovaný nakonec kvůli zdravotním problémům odstoupil, a Procházka tak musel hledat náhradního soupeře. Situace však nabrala nečekaný obrat. Ulberg se krátce nato „zázračně“ uzdravil a v Austrálii přece jen nastoupil, ovšem proti jinému protivníkovi.„Nebylo to tak, jak Jiří tvrdil, že jsem se mu chtěl vyhnout nebo že jsem odmítl souboj,“ uvedl Ulberg v rozhovoru s novinářem Arielem Helwanim. „Byl jsem zraněný a nečekal jsem, že mu to UFC vůbec oznámí. Chtěl jsem náš zápas pouze přesunout na listopad, abych měl dostatek času na rekonvalescenci. Jenže Jiří chtěl bojovat dřív, aby byl připraven na titulový duel mezi Ankalajevem a Pereirou,“ dodal aktuální třetí muž žebříčku polotěžké váhy.Ulberg si to nakonec v Perthu rozdal s Američanem Dominickem Reyesem, kterého knokautoval už v prvním kole. Jak ale sám přiznává, zápas pro něj představoval […]

What’s up with the NFL’s Premature Touchdown Celebration Problem?

It is perplexing to see NFL players commit the same mistake repeatedly when there are numerous highlights documenting the miscue for the football world to see. That is why I am baffled by two examples of recent players dropping the ball before crossing the goal line, especially when seeing it cost their teams points and wins by attempting to showboat on a potential touchdown, as Colts wide receiver Adonai Mitchell and Cardinals running back Emari Demercado have already done this season.As a former NFL player who loved celebrating big plays as a youth, high school and collegiate player, I understand the adrenaline rush of crossing the goal line and the cultural reaction to cool celebratory acts that follow a score.After watching Billy "White Shoes" Johnson perform the "funky chicken" as his touchdown celebration in the 1970s, I could not wait to […]
