Bridgewater Officially Retires from NFL as Lions Add Dobbs for Depth

Teddy Bridgewater has officially retired from the NFL, posting on Instagram that this time it’s for real as the Lions sign Josh Dobbs to a one-year deal to back up Jared Goff and bolster quarterback depth.

The Lions are preparing for their Sept. 13 opener, reconfiguring the QB room with Dobbs and Luke Altmyer in the mix.

Wentz return tightens Vikings’ quarterback puzzle

Kyler Murray remains the presumed Vikings starter, but Carson Wentz’s return creates a crowded depth chart behind him, with J.J. McCarthy and Max Brosmer in the mix. Minnesota likely won’t carry four QBs on the 53-man roster, so one veteran could be traded or cut, or McCarthy could be pressed into a larger role, leaving the Week 1 lineup still to be determined as the team weighs experience against development.

Eagles bolster QB room with veteran Andy Dalton trade

The Philadelphia Eagles traded a 2027 seventh-round pick to the Carolina Panthers for veteran quarterback Andy Dalton. Dalton won't threaten Jalen Hurts’ job but adds experienced depth and a different perspective to Philly’s QB room, potentially giving the team flexibility on QB2 Tanner McKee. At roughly $4 million for 2026, his contract is more than typical QB3 money, but his long NFL resume could help install a new system and stabilize the depth chart.
