Bridgewater unexpectedly exits Lions, ending backup QB role behind Goff.

Bridgewater unexpectedly stepped away from football after being expected to serve as the Lions' backup quarterback behind Jared Goff. This is his second departure from the NFL; he previously walked away after the 2023 season to coach high school football at Miami Northwestern before returning for the 2024 season. At 33 years old, his latest departure could be permanent, ending an 11-season NFL career with 15,182 passing yards, 75 touchdowns, and 47 interceptions across seven teams.
