Teddy Bridgewater Looked Awesome vs. Atlanta, Then Hurt His Ankle
By Jason McIntyre
Teddy Bridgewater was having a brilliant first NFL start, carving up the Falcons with his feet and arm – 27 yards rushing and a TD; 317 yards passing – before suffering an ankle injury midway through the 4th quarter and getting carted to the locker room. Bridgewater staked the Vikings a 27-14 lead before Atlanta stormed back to go up 28-27 in the third quarter.
And then Bridgewater led Minnesota downfield for the go-ahead TD – and 2-point conversion and the Vikings are up 38-28 with just over four minutes left. Minnesota has over 500 yards of total offense.
This was his signature moment, besides the touchdown run.
