Introductions not necessary for Hoyer
Brian Hoyer's familiarity with those he'll be working closest with helped lure the veteran quarterback to the Bears.
"It was a great opportunity," Hoyer said Monday at Halas Hall, two days after agreeing to a one-year contract to back up Jay Cutler.
"I had been with [offensive coordinator] Dowell Loggains in Cleveland and oddly enough [quarterbacks coach] Dave Ragone is from the same high school I am, so I had a lot of connections there. I've gotten to know Jay over the years just playing against him. I thought it was a good opportunity to play behind him and be a part of a great organization."
