While the Chicago Bears have a ton of concerns this offseason, it’s nice that for once it doesn’t have to do with the quarterback. Justin Fields is QB1 heading into the 2022 season, where the only question is who will round out his supporting cast.
But there were some questions about who would serve as his backup after Chicago signed Trevor Siemian to a two-year deal to presumably serve as QB2 behind Fields.
Bears general manager Ryan Poles confirmed that Siemian will serve as Fields’ backup, which leaves Nick Foles — and his $10.67 million cap hit — as the odd man out.
