Introduction to the Bears’ New Signing
The Bears have been looking to add a veteran to their quarterbacks room to help mentor Caleb Williams, and they found one in Case Keenum.
The Deal
Keenum agreed to a one-year deal with the Bears worth up to $3 million, and he’s likely to be their third-stringer behind Williams and Tyson Bagent. With Williams and Bagent learning a new offense under coach Ben Johnson, there’s a strong likelihood the team will carry all three on the active roster this season.
Case Keenum’s Background
Keenum, 37, started two games for the Texans last season and completed 34 of 53 passes for 291 yards with a touchdown and three interceptions while going 1-1. The last time he was a full-time starter was with the Broncos in 2018. This will be Keenum’s 11th season and eighth team. He has been in the league since 2012, when the Texans signed him to their practice squad after a stellar career at the University of Houston.
