Teddy Bridgewater Named To PFWA All-Rookie Team

Today, the Pro Football Writers Association announced their All-Rookie Team and it included Minnesota Vikings quarterback Teddy Bridgewater.

Every year, the PFWA names their Rookie of the Year and All-Rookie Team. This year, quarterback Teddy Bridgewater was the only member of the Minnesota Vikings to make the squad. Bridgewater had to beat out several talented rookie passers this year for the recognition, including Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr and Jacksonville’s Blake Bortles.
