The Bears are in quarterback purgatory as they wait to see whether Justin Fields can be the face of their franchise.
The Commanders, though, are in quarterback hell.
Entering this season, 10 different quarterbacks had started the 55 games since starter Alex Smith suffered a gruesome compound fracture of both bones in his right leg in 2018. The list includes Ryan Fitzpatrick, whom they signed to start last year but needed season-ending hip surgery after throwing just six passes, and the late Dwayne Haskins, the No. 15 overall pick in 2019 whom they eventually cut in the middle of a season.
