Ever since his injury last season, updates on the status of Minnesota Vikings’ quarterback Teddy Bridgewater have been few and far between. However, we know that #5 has been up to something over the past couple of days, thanks to the miracle of the Twitter machine.
I think @stefondiggs & @God_Son80 are scared of me in Madden. Haven't heard from them since workouts this morning .

God_Son80 is the Twitter handle of Miami Dolphins’ wide receiver Jarvis Landry. It would appear that Bridgewater, Diggs, and Landry (and almost certainly others) are working out together leading up to the start of Training Camp here in a couple of weeks.
This isn’t the first time that Bridgewater has gotten a group of receivers together to work out. Last year, he was working with a group down in Miami that included Pittsburgh Steelers’ superstar wideout Antonio Brown. . .and, by his own account, administering beatdowns in Madden NFL to Landry and company.
We’re going to be seeing players reporting to camp in Mankato just two weeks from tomorrow, ladies and gentlemen. At that point, we’ll finally get some answers on just how much progress Bridgewater has made in the last eleven months when the team decides whether to start him out on the Physically Unable to Perform list or not. But, for now, it appears he’s getting himself ready for whatever comes along.
