Report: Bears Acquire QB Nick Foles in Trade With Jaguars

The Bears acquired quarterback Nick Foles in a trade with the Jaguars on Wednesday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Jacksonville will reportedly receive the Bears’ compensatory fourth-round pick in the deal.

Foles signed a four-year, $88 million contract with the Jaguars in March 2019, but he made just four starts last season. He broke his clavicle in September, missing nine weeks before returning in November 2019. Rookie Gardner Minshew started for Jacksonville in Foles' absence, then took the starting job at the beginning of December.

Foles is expected to battle Bears quarterback Mitchell Trubisky for the starting job in Chicago.
