The Bears were casually linked to Mariota by some throughout various points this offseason, yet there was also a report stating the representation the two QBs share wasn't fond of both competing for the same starting spot. Perhaps more interesting is the fact that Mariota found a home in Las Vegas. It creates two trains of thought for Bears fans:
1. Mariota comes in as the presumed backup to Derek Carr, who remains on a tight leash and is inevitably fighting a losing battle anyways.
