Nick Foles knows exactly what he’s getting into.
The Super Bowl-winning quarterback knows all about quarterback competitions, quarterback controversies and the importance of being a sincerely good teammate. He knows the value of comfort zones and familiarity. He knows about big cities and passionate, irrational fan bases. He knows the role the media plays. And probably most of all, he knows the importance of being in the right place at the right time.
That’s why he’s in Chicago, following a trade with the Jaguars for a fourth-round 2020 draft pick last month. That’s why he made it happen.
