The Sun-Times’ Patrick Finley and Jason Lieser break down the Bears’ 53-man roster, which the team submitted to the NFL on Saturday afternoon:
Quarterback
Starter: Mitch Trubisky
Backup: Chase Daniel
This was always going to be the Bears’ two-man quarterback room — Trubisky is the Bears’ quarterback of the future [and present] and Daniel is the highest-paid backup in the sport. The two haven’t done a lot to inspire confidence this preseason: Trubisky has handed the ball off three times in exhibition games, while Daniel had an 81.7 passer rating over three postseason contests.
