Report: Louisville QB Teddy Bridgewater To Visit Patriots On Wednesday

The New England Patriots are doing their due diligence on some top quarterback prospects this spring.

Teddy Bridgewater is scheduled to visit the Patriots on Wednesday, a source told NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport. The Louisville product is expected to be taken in the first round of the 2014 NFL draft.

Bridgewater will join projected first-round signal-caller Johnny Manziel on his visit to Foxboro. The Patriots have quarterback Tom Brady locked up through 2017 on a contract extension he signed last offseason, but backup Ryan Mallett’s rookie contract runs out after this season.

Bridgewater had a rough showing at his pro day March 17. That could have the 6-foot-2, 214-pound quarterback tumbling on draft day.
