Mark Sanchez saved Connor Shaw’s job, for now

The Chicago Bears team account reported that the team had waived Connor Shaw. Shaw had sent his goodbyes. However, later that day Mark Sanchez suffered a knee injury and is expected to miss the rest of OTAs.

The injury is not expected to hold Sanchez out into training camp or the season. Still, in cutting Shaw, the Bears went all-in on their three quarterbacks and their status on the team. Any injury at any point was going to bite the Bears, and it did within hours of the move. The Bears had to bring back Connor Shaw.
