NFL hopeful Teddy Bridgewater surprises his 'survivor' mom with ultimate Mother's Day gift

THANKS, MOM: NFL draft hopeful Teddy Bridgewater fulfilled a promise he made to his mom when was only 8 years old.

Rose Murphy raised her son while battling and eventually beating breast cancer. “When I make it to the NFL, I’m going to buy you a pink Cadillac Escalade with pink rims,” Bridgewater, now 21, recalled telling his mom when he was in the third grade.

Because Murphy is a breast cancer survivor, the Cadillac’s pink color has significant meaning to her.

Bridgewater made good on his promise after a birthday lunch in New York. When the pair walked out of the restaurant, a pink Escalade was parked at the curb.
