Moves back to bench
Bridgewater, who was starting in place of Drew Brees (thumb), will revert to his backup role with the news that the 40-year-old quarterback will play Sunday, Dianna Russini of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Bridgewater was impressive during his five-game stint as the starter, completing nearly 70 percent of his passes while posting a respectable 9:2 TD:INT ratio since taking over for the injured Brees. Still, it was never in doubt the Saints' legend would return as the starting signal caller once he was deemed healthy enough to compete, something the team and Brees confirmed Saturday following a week of practice participation. Bridgewater very well might have played his way into a starting role…read more

Waiting on decision
Coach Sean Payton suggested he'll wait until Sunday to announce his decision between Bridgewater and Drew Brees (thumb) as the Week 8 starting quarterback against Arizona, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Coming back from Sept. 18 thumb surgery, Brees was a limited participant at practice throughout the week, splitting reps with Bridgewater. An upcoming bye in Week 9 might seem to favor a cautious approach, but Brees has made it clear he wants to play this coming Sunday. The coaching staff and medical staff also figure to be involved in the decision, which will determine if Bridgewater gets one last start before handing the offense back to Brees.

Throws two TD passes vs. Bears
Bridgewater completed 23 of 38 pass attempts for 281 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's 36-25 win over the Bears.
Analysis: Faced with a difficult road matchup, Bridgewater completed passes to eight different receivers while averaging a respectable 7.4 yards per attempt. He completed short touchdown passes to Josh Hill and Taysom Hill, giving him his third multi-touchdown game of the season as he posted his second-best yardage total. Now averaging 278 passing yards over the last three games, Bridgewater will enjoy an excellent home matchup against the Cardinals next Sunday.

Remains unbeaten as starter
Bridgewater completed 24 of 36 passes for 240 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions in the Saints' 13-6 win over the Jaguars on Sunday. He also netted zero yards on his three rushes.
Analysis: It was far from a smooth offensive game for either squad, but as he's proven capable of over the last several weeks, Bridgewater did enough to lead the Saints to victory. The veteran remained free of any mistakes and battled through three sacks on the afternoon. Bridgewater also helmed an 11-play, 75-yard fourth-quarter march that knocked 6:22 off the clock and culminated in a four-yard touchdown pass to Jared Cook to seal the win for New Orleans. He also connected with six different pass…read more

Spectacular in divisional win
Bridgewater completed 26 of 34 passes for 314 yards with four touchdowns and one interception in the Saints' 31-24 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday. He also rushed five times for seven yards.
Analysis: After a pair of "game manager" efforts in his first two starts in place of Drew Brees (thumb), Bridgewater went into vintage Brees mode with an outstanding all-around performance. Much like the player he's filling in for, Bridgewater displayed spectacular chemistry with Michael Thomas, connecting with the All-Pro receiver for 11 completions, 182 yards and touchdown passes of 14 and 12 yards. Brees resumed throwing this past week, but he likely still remains at least a couple of weeks away from…read more

Does enough to secure win
Bridgewater completed 23 of 30 pass attempts for 193 yards and an interception in Sunday's 12-10 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: Bridgewater wasn't able to lead a touchdown drive against a tough Dallas defense, but the backup was able to keep the chains moving between the 20s and provide just enough to help secure a close victory. The 26-year-old may not put up enough statistics to warrant fantasy relevance, but he is helping fantasy owners by feeding the team's two star players (Alvin Kamara and Michael Thomas) on a weekly basis. Bridgewater has a propensity to hit the safe underneath routes, so we shouldn't expect huge…read more

Clearly top option under center
Bridgewater completed 19 of 27 pass attempts for 177 yards and two touchdowns in Week 3 against the Seahawks. He also rushed the ball three times for 12 yards.
Analysis: Bridgewater was helped by his defense and special teams, as the units put the first two touchdowns on the board for the Saints. However, he went on to orchestrate consecutive touchdown drives -- one to end the first half and the other to begin the second -- that put the team up big. Bridgewater didn't work down the field extensively by averaging only 6.6 yards per attempt, but did enough to post a respectable line while also maintaining the value of both Michael Thomas and Alvin Kamara. Perhaps…read more

In line for Week 3 start
Bridgewater is in line to receive the start at quarterback Sunday against the Seahawks and see the majority of the Saints' snaps behind center, a source tells Dianna Russini of ESPN.
Analysis: After Drew Brees (thumb) underwent surgery Wednesday that is expected to sideline him for six weeks, coach Sean Payton was reluctant to give details about his plans at quarterback while the franchise signal-caller was on the mend. Though Russini notes that the other healthy quarterback on the roster, Taysom Hill, will be "sprinkled in throughout the game," Bridgewater will step in as the primary replacement for Brees in what will mark just his second regular-season start in four years. Since…read more

May yield reps to Hill
Bridgewater may split the QB workload with Taysom Hill in the absence of Drew Brees (thumb), John DeShazier of the Saints' official site reports.
Analysis: After Brees departed Sunday's game against the Rams, Bridgewater directed the Saints offense the rest of the way. Bridgewater's performance wasn't exactly pristine, as the Saints managed just nine points across nine possessions while he completed 17 of 30 passes for 165 yards. On Wednesday, coach Sean Payton wouldn't commit to Bridgewater as the starter moving forward, which leaves the door open for Hill to get snaps under center at some point. It may just be a strategic move to force upcoming…read more

Could be subject of quick hook
Although Bridgewater will have the first opportunity to replace Drew Brees (thumb) during his absence, coach Sean Payton could be quick to replace him with Taysom Hill if Bridgewater struggles early, Mike Triplett of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Bridgewater had Payton's full support Monday after a so-so performance in emergency duty versus the Rams on Sunday following Brees' first-quarter exit. The 26-year-old signal-caller completed 17 of 30 passes for 165 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions, a serviceable but uninspired line that ultimately failed to give the Saints a realistic chance of keeping pace with Los Angeles. While Payton named the team's poor offensive line play and 11 penalties as primary culprits for the offensive…read more

Slated to fill in for Brees
Bridgewater is in line to fill in as the Saints' starting QB with Drew Brees expected to undergo thumb surgery and miss approximately six weeks, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Bridgewater -- a 2014 first-rounder -- has starting experience from his days with the Vikings prior to suffering a brutal knee injury in August of 2016 that stalled his career. Now further removed from that issue, Bridgewater should be a capable fill-in for Brees in the coming weeks and definitely is worth an add for those looking to secure QB depth or simply scrambling to replace an injured player like Brees or Ben Roethlisberger (elbow).

Serviceable in emergency duty
Bridgewater completed 17 of 30 passes for 165 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions in the Saints' 27-9 loss to the Rams on Sunday. He also rushed twice for five yards and had a fumble, but it was recovered by the offense.
Analysis: Drew Brees logged only five attempts before exiting the game with a hand injury caused by a collision with the helmet of Aaron Donald on what would be his final throw of the afternoon. That brought on Bridgewater for only his second taste of meaningful regular-season action since January 2016. The 26-year-old was understandably a bit rusty under the duress of an aggressive Rams defense that attempted to capitalize on his presence in the contest, but he managed to remain free of turnovers since…read more

Passes for 126 yards
Bridgewater (illness) completed 15 of 26 passes for 126 yards with zero touchdowns or interceptions in Saturday's preseason game against the Jets.
Analysis: Bridgewater played through the illness in the previous preseason contest but looked significantly more comfortable Saturday. The 26-year-old remains primed to begin the season as the Saints' top backup behind Drew Brees.

Plays through illness Sunday
Bridgewater completed five of 12 passes for 40 yards with one interception in Sunday's preseason win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Getting the start with Drew Brees on the sidelines, Bridgewater struggled to move the chains consistently but didn't get much help, either -- his pick came when a simple dump-off pass in the red zone clanked off Dwayne Washington's hands straight up into the air, with the ball falling to Chargers safety Jaylen Watkins. Per Mike Triplett of ESPN, coach Sean Payton revealed after the game that Bridgewater was feeling under the weather, so it's hard to read too much into this performance.…read more

Feeling healthier than ever
Bridgewater said Wednesday that he feels healthier now than he did before sustaining a noncontact knee injury in 2016, Amie Just of the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: "I can honestly say that this is the best I've ever felt in my six years," Bridgewater said, referring to his six seasons in the NFL. Bridgewater turned down a contract offer from the Dolphins earlier this offseason, opting instead to reprise his role as Drew Brees' backup, and possible eventual heir, in New Orleans.

Decides to stick with Saints
The Saints signed Bridgewater on Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Bridgewater considered a contract offer from the Dolphins, which would have included a chance to start in 2019. In the end, though, he's returning to the Saints and the potential to be Drew Brees' heir apparent. There's no telling how much tread Brees has left on his tires, but Bridgewater again will act as his primary backup.

Still considering Miami's offer
Bridgewater could renege on his commitment to re-sign with the Saints, as the quarterback is still weighing a contract offer from the Dolphins, Dianna Russini of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Bridgewater may be having second thoughts about returning to New Orleans for another season with no chance of earning a starting job. The Dolphins wouldn't be able to put much talent around Bridgewater, but they could at least promise a quarterback competition this summer. It's also quite possible the final decision simply comes down to money. Coach Sean Payton has dropped multiple hints that he views Bridgewater as the eventual replacement for Drew Brees.

Staying with Saints
Bridgewater plans to re-sign with the Saints, Jane Slater of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Bridgewater reportedly turned down a larger contract from Miami, preferring to stay in New Orleans, where he may eventually have a chance to replace Drew Brees as the starting quarterback. The 26-year-old struggled when he finally got on the field Week 17 this past season, playing alongside other backups in a 33-14 loss to the Panthers. There's no guarantee Bridgewater ever gets his shot as the starter in New Orleans, as the 40-year-old Brees just posted the best passer rating (115.7) of his…read more

Throws first touchdown since 2015
Bridgewater connected on 14 of 22 passes for 118 yards, a touchdown and an interception during Sunday's 33-14 loss to the Panthers. He added 12 yards on four carries.
Analysis: Bridgewater hadn't completed a pass and had attempted just three in regular-season action since 2015, so some rust was expected. Still, it was a feel-good story to see him loft a nine-yard touchdown to Tre'Quan Smith early in the fourth quarter, with the game already well out of reach. The feel-goodery probably ends there. If all goes to plan for New Orleans, Sunday will have featured Bridgewater's last meaningful snaps of the season.

Named as Week 17 starter
Bridgewater will start Sunday's game against the Panthers, Josh Katzenstein of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Coach Sean Payton made the announcement Friday afternoon, confirming Drew Brees won't play again until the divisional round of the playoffs. Making his first start since the end of the 2015 season, Bridgewater has an excellent opportunity to improve his value before his one-year contract expires. Of course, he'll probably spend much of the game playing with other backups, with Michael Thomas, Alvin Kamara and Mark Ingram unlikely to handle their usual workloads if they even play at all.

May see work Week 17
Bridgewater will likely see action on offense Sunday against the Panthers, as coach Sean Payton is expected to rest a number of key regulars with the Saints having clinched the NFC's top seed, Mike Triplett of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Payton hasn't officially revealed his intentions for the regular-season finale, but his prior history in Week 17s when the Saints' playoff seeding has been secure suggests top signal-caller Drew Brees won't be pressed into extensive duty. Triplett notes that when the Saints were locked in as the No. 1 seed in 2009 and the No. 2 seed in 2006 heading into those respective season finales, Payton rested starters on both occasions. Further influencing Payton's case to follow that plan again is the…read more
