According to an article on the Fox Sports website, Bridgewater will be one of the contestants on an upcoming episode of ABC’s Celebrity Family Feud, hosted by Steve Harvey. The episode will pit 5 NFC players against 5 AFC players, with the winnings going to charity.
On the NFC side, Bridgewater will be joined by Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones, San Francisco 49ers offensive tackle Joe Staley, Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson and Washington Redskins wide receiver Pierre Garcon.
AFC’s team will be represented by Denver Broncos linebacker Von Miller, Cincinnati Bengals linebacker A.J. Hawk, Kansas City Chiefs defensive end Tamba Hali, Oakland Raiders linebacker Malcolm Smith and San Diego Chargers linebacker Melvin Ingram.
The winning team can win up to $25,000 for charity as well as conference bragging rights. The AFC’s charity is Still Strong Foundation (aka Michael’s Way) and the NFC has chosen the Professional Athletes Foundation.
Celebrity Family Feud is part of a new block of game shows on ABC’s ‘Sunday Fun and Games’ series starting June 26th including other programs like The $100,000 Pyramid and Match Game. It will be nice to see a Minnesota Vikings player competing on Sunday night, even if it just means Bridgewater being a part of a game show.
