Okay, hear me out.
Why is Nathan Peterman on the 53-man roster?
The Chicago Bears initially waived Peterman during the initial roster cuts but signed him back to the active roster after placing Doug Kramer on IR.
Now, the move could be simply the fact that the Bears want to take advantage of the new QB3 rule and they want the extra active roster spot on Sundays. Tyson Bagent is QB2. Peterman is QB3. That might be the reason, end of story.
But is having Nathan Peterman available on Sundays in the regular season that crucial?
