While quarterback is far from a concern in Chicago, the Bears are signing free agent quarterback Nathan Peterman to a one-year deal, per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.
Peterman spent his first two seasons with the Bills from 2017-18, where he made four starts. He opened the 2018 season as Buffalo’s starting quarterback before being replaced by first-round rookie Josh Allen, after Peterman posted a 0.0 quarterback rating. He was released in November.
Peterman spent the last few years with the Las Vegas Raiders, where he’s served as a backup to Derek Carr. He appeared in two games between 2020-21, completing 3-of-5 passes for 60 yards. He briefly relieved Carr against the Bears last season, where he had two rushes for two yards.
