#Saints are sending a 3rd round pick to the #Jets in exchange for QB Teddy Bridgewater, per @MikeSilver. NYJ got what they want and New Orleans now has a legitimate backup and potentially their heir apparent to Drew Brees.

The Jets literally left Teddy Bridgewater on the side of the New Jersey Turnpike, apparently https://t.co/RiN7grizHP

The future of the Saints franchise belongs to Teddy Bridgewater, I think https://t.co/1ZVEk3oNzQ

Teddy Bridgewater to the #Saints cements what’s folks have been saying for a few weeks now. Sam Darnold will be the week one starter for the #Jets pic.twitter.com/9QJnuo3Shn

This is a great spot for Bridgewater. When Bress retires, Teddy would be given the keys to a team with a very solid supporting cast. https://t.co/hyXtPJ7LP6

Backup quarterbacks are going fast. Brett Hundley and Teddy Bridgewater both traded today. Let's see if the Raiders make a move or stick with Cook and Manuel #Raiders
