Teddy Bridgewater unfollows Panthers on Instagram, sets account to private

Despite signing a three-year, $63 million contract last March, it’s obvious he’s fallen out of favor with the front office after a disappointing 2020 season.

At this point, we don’t know who will be starting at quarterback for the Carolina Panthers in 2021. We are pretty sure that it won’t be Teddy Bridgewater, though. Despite signing a three-year, $63 million contract last March, it’s obvious he’s fallen out of favor with the front office after a disappointing 2020 season.

Both team owner David Tepper and coach Matt Rhule have been throwing shade at their starter in their offseason comments. The Panthers were also reported to have tried to send Teddy to the Lions in the Matt Stafford deal that fell through.

Carolina has also been involved in practically every other veteran QB trade discussion, although they were apparently not interested in Carson Wentz.

The latest indication that Bridgewater’s time with the Panthers is nearing an end comes from Instagram, where Bridgewater has unfollowed the team’s official account. He’s also set his account to private.

It’s unfortunate things haven’t worked out for Bridgewater, here. By all accounts, he’s a great guy and teammate and his coming back from the devastating knee injury in 2016 is an inspiring one. Hopefully he will land on his feet and get another opportunity elsewhere.

Watch: Teddy Bridgewater shares inspiration from Dennis Rodman on Instagram

Over the weekend, Bridgewater shared a video of Dennis Rodman talking about his motivation and hustle.

Panthers fans are starting to get to know their new quarterback, Teddy Bridgewater. While he’s a much different personality than Cam Newton, Bridgewater brings his own unique energy to the team.

Over the weekend, Bridgewater shared a video of Dennis Rodman talking about his motivation and hustle. Watch.

In recent years, Rodman’s accomplishments have been overshadowed by his off-the-court antics. While his courting of North Korean leaders and celebrities like Madonna and Carmen Electra are undeniably interesting, Rodman’s game often gets overlooked for the hype.

People forget, but at one point Rodman was the best rebounder in the NBA despite being relatively undersized. He’s listed at 6-foot-7. However, he’s likely at least two inches shorter. Rodman became a great rebounder not through athletic gifts but rather through tremendous hard work and dedication. He was also an extremely underrated and cerebral defender.

While they may seem nothing alike personality-wise, that may be the biggest thing Bridgewater has in common with Rodman. He has an exceptional football IQ, which will serve him well in Carolina.
