I went brain dead for a minute there. I was trying to say that there wasn’t much... Medaille said, "I think any contract we would negotiate with Teddy would likely be cheaper or relatively close to the tolled contract value": so, a 1-year deal for $2.2M? That's what he is receiving for 2017 and would get in 2018 if tolled. That's the kind of deal we gave Keenum, and honestly would be a slap to any QB considered a likely starter. You could add injury escape clauses to his contract, but if Bridgewater gets significant and effective playing time this year, I can't see him signing for anything less what the Bears gave Mike Glennon - 3 years for $45M.
money to be saved compared to his 5th year option price when
compared to the risk of his injury.
