Carolina Panthers quarterback Teddy Bridgewater was limited in Thursday's practice.

While limited practice sessions are usually viewed as positive signs for players dealing with injuries, in this case, the limited tag suggests just that, that Bridgewater is limited and is in danger of missing Week 11. According to reports from the NFL Network earlier today, Bridgewater is in danger of missing this weekend's contest against the Detroit Lions. Carolina has a bye in Week 12, something that may compel them to play it safe with their quarterback with the impetus of having him being able to recover for two weeks before exposing him to more hits. Superflex fantasy managers will want to plan to be without Bridgewater for Week 11.

Panthers starting quarterback Teddy Bridgewater is expected to practice Wednesday after spraining his MCL in Week 10.

It looks like Bridgewater is on track to play Week 11 against the Lions. Bridgewater's presence under center would be good news for all of Carolina's offensive skill players. We would expect Bridgewater to be limited in practice all week, but the fact that he's out there at all on Wednesday is an optimistic sign.

Bridgewater’s MCL sprain is considered minor, and coach Matt Rhule expressed optimism yesterday about Bridgewater’s chances for playing Sunday vs. the Lions Pelissero's tweet went on to say. We have Walker as the team's QB2 with Grier as the QB3 on the 4for4.com depth charts. The Panthers, according to those who follow the team, have been careful with injuries in the past, so it's not out of the question they don't rush Bridgewater back to action. It's a situation worth monitoring this week.

It wasn't a major injury for Bridgewater, but as Rapoport also tweeted, the Panthers are a franchise that has been cautious with injuries this season - Christian McCaffrey for example. Still, he hasn't been ruled out for Sunday.

Bridgewater still has some soreness and some swelling according to Mortensen's tweet. As a result, Bridgewater's status uncertain for this week but positive vibes for Bridgewater, according to Rapoport. Grier looks to be next up on the depth chart with Walker behind him if Bridgewater has to miss any time.

During her Friday mailbag article, Katherine Terrell of The Athletic addressed the Michael Thomas conundrum by addressing the improved depth at wide receiver. "This Saints team is much better positioned to absorb this blow," wrote Terrell. "The addition of Emmanuel Sanders will be a tremendous help, and if he holds up his production from past years, he’s certainly still capable of being a No. 1 receiver. If Thomas is out for a while, that acquisition might end up being as important as Teddy Bridgewater was a few years ago."

Sanders will never be confused for Thomas, but he has had top 20 fantasy seasons with Denver and Pittsburgh. The Saints will look to Sanders to fill a similar safety valve role as Thomas while hoping Tre'Quan Smith and Deonte Harris make their presence known for as long as Thomas is out.

Carolina is giving former Saints' QB Teddy Bridgewater a three-year, $63 million deal, per source.

This signing comes on the heels of the Panthers announcing that they are permitting Cam Newton to seek a trade, but Newton's response indicates that they didn't give him a choice. Meanwhile, Bridgewater's performance filling in for an injured Drew Brees was enough to earn him roughly $20 million per year in Carolina. He completed 67.9% of his passes for 1384 yards, nine touchdowns and two interceptions with a 7.1 YPA. Fantasy-wise, he'll have two good receivers to throw to in D.J. Moore and Curtis Samuel, while Christian McCaffrey is one of the best receiving backs in the league, so it's a good situation. He'll likely be ranked as a low-end QB2/high-end QB3 this summer.

Triplett added Brees hopes he’s able to play next Sunday against Arizona, but it’s still a “we’ll see” based on how the week goes. Brees has been eyeing Week 8 for a while now, but with a bye in Week 9, the Saints may play it safe and give Brees an extra week off, especially after going 5-0 under Bridgewater.
