Bears signing QB Andy Dalton: report

It’s precipitous drop-off for the Bears from Plan A to Plan B when it comes to solving their quarterback problem. The dream of landing Deshaun Watson or Russell Wilson seems to be fading, and the Bears will likely end up with Andy Dalton instead.

The Bears are signing Dalton to a one-year, $10 million deal with another $3 in incentives, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Tuesday.

That puts him in the lead to be their starting quarterback for 2021 ahead of Nick Foles. The team also still has the NFL Draft to find a quarterback, but landing an instant starter is extremely unlikely at No.
