The Bears are adding former Panthers backup quarterback P.J. Walker to play behind Justin Fields, ESPN reported. That could signal a plan to move on from Trevor Siemian, who is under contract for next season but can be cut with a minimal salary-cap hit.
Walker, 28, went undrafted out of Temple in 2017, but hung around on the Colts’ practice squad for two seasons before venturing into the XFL and resurfacing with the Panthers as a backup in 2020.
