Bears coach Ben Johnson is staying quiet when it comes to his starting quarterback for Sunday's home game against the New York Jets. With Caleb Williams sidelined by a hamstring injury, Case Keenum led Chicago to a 27-7 win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night. Keenum passed for 247 yards and two touchdowns, and he also scored on a 1-yard sneak. Tyson Bagent is considered the No. 2 quarterback behind Williams, but he wasn’t able to clear the NFL’s concussion protocol until Sunday.
It looks as if Bagent will have no restrictions this week as Chicago prepares to face the Jets.
