Dan Campbell stays in touch with retired ex-Lions QB Teddy Bridgewater
Lions head coach Dan Campbell has not forgotten about former quarterback Teddy Bridgewater, who spent parts of two seasons in Detroit, from 2023-2024. During his media session on Monday, Day 2 of Lions training camp, Campbell was asked about his relationship with Bridgewater and if he has kept in contact with the former quarterback. Campbell didn't get too deep into details but did say the relationship is still a good one. "Teddy and I, we talk all the time - I mean, not all the time, but we communicate back and forth," Campbell said. "I've known Teddy a long time, so yeah. That's on a personal level. He's somebody I've got a lot of respect for and so just as a human being I'm going to talk to Teddy." Campbell said nothing about any sense of Lions interest in bringing Bridgewater back for another year. Bridgewater first joined the Lions in August 2023. He announced his retirement in December 2023 to become a high school football coach. About a year later, in December 2024, Bridgewater came out of retirement after his high school season ended and re-joined the Lions for their playoff run, even briefly appearing in the Divisional Playoff against the Washington Commanders after Jared Goff was briefly being evaluated for a concussion. Bridgewater was recently suspended as head coach at Miami Northwestern after providing impermissible benefits to his players, including Uber rides and meals, which he paid for himself. In total, Bridgewater played ten seasons, making stops with the Minnesota Vikings, New York Jets, New Orleans Saints (where Campbell served as assistant head coach and tight ends coach from 2016 to 2020), Carolina Panthers, Denver Broncos, Miami Dolphins, and Lions. He was a Pro Bowl selection in 2015. He posted a 33-32 record, throwing for 15,120 yards in 79 games played (65 starts) with 75 touchdowns and 47 interceptions.

2 dogs died inside hot car with closed windows in Massachusetts, police say; 2 women charged
Two women have been charged with animal cruelty in Bridgewater, Massachusetts after police said two dogs died inside a hot car on Wednesday. Police were called to a condo on Heather Lane shortly after 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday after getting a 911 call reporting two women screaming and crying outside the building. When police arrived, they said they found two dead medium-sized dogs lying on the ground near a walkway. The 59-year-old woman and 32-year-old woman, both of Bridgewater, had allegedly left the dogs inside a hot car for more than 90 minutes with the windows closed and no air conditioning. The two women allegedly took the dogs out of the car and tried to revive them before police were called. Bridgewater firefighters determined the temperature inside the car at the time was at least 130 degrees. Police said their investigation also revealed the dogs had also been living in unsanitary conditions inside the home. Both women will be summoned to Brockton District Court on charges of cruelty to animals and confinement of an animal in a motor vehicle causing exposure to extreme heat. The women aren't being identified but police said they're related. The two dogs, a 4-year-old male and a 2-year-old female, were taken to a veterinarian's office for a necropsy. "This is a really terrible tragedy that was truly preventable," said Bridgewater Police Chief Christopher Delmonte at a news conference Thursday. "In extreme conditions, particularly under direct sunlight, we know that vehicles can heat up very, very quickly and so our advice to people is obviously make your pets a priority as well as your own family," said Delmonte. "But in making them a priority, make sure you're accounting for the conditions that may sneak up on you." In 2016, then-Gov. Charlie Baker signed a law that allows people to rescue animals trapped in hot cars without facing charges if they believe the animals are in imminent danger.
