Former Minnesota Vikings quarterback Teddy Bridgewater given news he didn't want to hear after doing the right thing by his players

Teddy Bridgewater suspended from head coaching job

The suspension didn't come out of nowhere either, as he solicited donations to help cover costs for the program that he shelled out last year.

• Uber rides: $700 per week
• Athletic recovery services $1,300 per week
• Pre-game meals: $2,200 per week

It feels a little off to suspend Bridgewater just for helping his players cover basic expenses like getting to and from practice and games. He's not buying the players Play Station's and such.

Things have gotten a little tight when it comes to high school football in the Sunshine State, as On3/Rivals noted that it's becoming a trend to punish schools for violations.

This post raised eyebrows around the Sunshine State. There is recent precedent for the FHSAA punishing programs for players receiving free meals and Uber rides. Last fall, several players at The First Academy were found to have received impermissible benefits, including a free Uber ride. The FHSAA hit the Royals with a two-year postseason ban and a $36,000 fine as a result.

This is Miami Northwestern’s second brush with the FHSAA in as many years. Last season the Bulls were investigated for using an ineligible player but that investigation was ultimately closed.

It's a tough pill to swallow for Bridgewater, and things could eventually change. As things sit, it's the kids who lose.
