Denver Broncos starting quarterback Teddy Bridgewater was carted off the field after he was tackled at the end of a scramble during the third quarter of Sunday's Week 15 game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
The crowd in Denver chanted "Ted-dy" as Bridgewater was loaded onto the cart. Bridgewater was replaced by Drew Lock, who threw a touchdown a short time later to Tim Patrick to give the Broncos their first lead of the game.
CBS' Evan Washburn reported that Bridgewater suffered a head injury and was taken to the hospital as a precaution, but did have movement in his extremities.
Bengals linebacker Joe Bachie - who made the initial hit on Bridgewater - suffered a left knee injury and was declared out.
