    Damn, it got me. The fracture rumors do sound more legit given that there was an ambulance ride and the rumors that he was taken to the trauma center.

    This says they put an air cast on his leg. That's for a fracture. via Star Tribune #TeddyBridgewater http://strib.mn/2bzWxC2

    Hopefully Vikings fans don't start calling him a bust and "injury prone" now. I hear that happens to players when they suffer a fluke injury early in their career sometimes.

    So no Bobby i dont think he will be labeled a bust, he was an improving qb who went through growing pains like any other young qb

    Agreed, when Clowney played he was one of the best run stopping players in the NFL, when Bridgewater played, he was really good at handing the ball off to AD.

    That said, I hope he recovers fully from today's injury and that his fans are smarter than the average Texans fan.

    We can only hope he continues this dominance....on the field.

    He has looked damn good this pre-season.

    For sure, and I hope he stays healthy.

    I also hope Bridgewater finds a way to get back healthy, I have never been his biggest fan, but injuries like this are always tragic and I hate when they happen to almost anyone.

    but if we eliminate the preseason none of this would happen!
    truth is football is a vicious sport. It can happen anywhere those injuries.
