With his top two quarterbacks nursing injuries, Bears coach Matt Nagy at least had to entertain the possibility that he could turn to third-stringer Nick Foles on Sunday against the Lions.
Monday, Nagy called veteran Andy Dalton “week-to-week” with a bone bruise in his left knee and said the team would monitor rookie Justin Fields’ throwing hand for swelling after finding no break in a Sunday afternoon X-ray.
It was telling that Nagy never mentioned Foles’ name when talking about his quarterbacks until he was asked specifically about the former Super Bowl MVP.
“They’re all three under consideration right now in regards to where they’re at, so we’ll just kinda have to see in the next couple days where they’re all at,” Nagy said.
