Teddy Bridgewater Active, Will Serve As Backup
2 years agoMiami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (finger, knee) is active for the wild-card game against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, but he will serve in a backup role to rookie Skylar Thompson with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) ruled out. Bridgewater was limited in practice this week after dislocating the pinkie finger on his throwing hand in Week 17. He hasn't played since, although he'll be available in case of emergency on wild-card weekend in a very tough matchup against the Bills defense on the road in a hostile environment. Thompson will likely have a rough go of it in just his third career start, so we would recommend that fantasy managers stay away from him. Wideouts Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle will see their targets, but they have a considerably lower ceiling and floor.
