Case Keenum re-entered the NFL spotlight by joining the Chicago Bears, signing a one-year, $3 million contract. After missing last season due to injury, the veteran quarterback felt his career was over but was rejuvenated after meeting with Bears' coach Ben Johnson. Chicago aims to provide guidance for first-round pick Caleb Williams, who lacked a seasoned mentor last season. With previous playoff experience and a reputation for mentorship, Keenum's addition could provide the stability the Bears need as they develop their young quarterbacks, including Williams and Tyson Bagent.

Keenum is a seasoned player whose journey has taken him through several teams, including a memorable stint with the Vikings, where he led them to the NFC Championship game in 2017. The Bears hope his experience will foster a productive environment for development as they navigate a crucial phase with their quarterback lineup.
