Bagent engineered six series, four scoring drives, finishing 13-for-22 for 196 yards and a TD; turnover-free after a prior INT. With Keenum sidelined, he’s positioned to push for No.2 behind Williams, while Reed shows depth and potential; the QB race in Chicago is tightening ahead of the Chiefs game.

Bagent steered three consecutive scoring drives, solidifying his case as the QB2 and showcasing leadership and accuracy, which could keep him in the Bears’ plans for depth and potential future opportunities elsewhere.

Bagent, Chicago’s backup, has shown capability in last week’s action, and his role could expand in this tune-up. Fantasy players watch his drive efficiency and connection with receivers as a potential Week 1 streaming option if Williams is limited.

Bagent’s path to the QB2 role is sharpened by Keenum’s presence and Williams’ game reps. His performance in Week 2 could redefine Chicago’s backup plan and impact dynasty/rookie depth charts.

Bagent’s camp interception underscores the quarterback depth chart’s competition and the coaching staff’s openness to evaluating backups behind Williams.
