Perhaps the most underrated quarterback of his generation, Teddy Bridgewater is retiring from the NFL. Next for Bridgewater? High school football coaching.<\/p>\n

The quarterback indicated last month that he plans to return to Miami<\/a> and coach high school football. He does so with a wealth of knowledge and experience at the NFL and college levels.<\/p>\n

Last season, Bridgewater was a backup quarterback for the Detroit Lions. His final game as an NFL player will have been Sunday’s loss in the NFC Championship Game to the San Francisco 49ers.<\/p>\n

Bridgewater ends his NFL career having played for seven teams across 10 years. He completed 66 percent of his passes for 15,120 yards with 75 touchdowns and 47 interceptions<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In the 2014 NFL draft, he was a first-round pick of the Minnesota Vikings.<\/p>\n

In college, he was a standout at Louisville who earned legendary status for his performance at Rutgers<\/a>. In the final game of the 2012 season, he gutted through a leg injury to earn Louisville the Big East title (well, technically, a share of the Big East title).<\/p>\n
