Chicago Bears

This is another easy destination to point out for Foles, as former Jags offensive coordinator, John DeFilippo, is now the Chicago Bears’ quarterbacks coach. Before he was fired by the Jags, he was also Foles’ quarterback coach during their Super Bowl win with the Eagles.

The hope was the pairing would work out with the Jags as the team spent the offseason installing the perfect system for Foles, but unfortunately, he was sidelined by a collarbone injury and could never find his footing after returning. Sending him to the Bears, who arguably have better offensive weapons, could maybe give him the post-Philly start he was hoping for with Jacksonville.

The Bears in a lot of ways are similar to the 2018-19 Jaguars. They have an elite defense, but the quarterback play is lacking. In this case, Mitch Trubisky is Blake Bortles, and like the Jags in 2018, the Bears know they need to take advantage of the window before them and can’t continue to waste it on Trubisky. That said, Foles may be enough of an upgrade to give them a team identical to the 2017 Eagles.

Unlike the Colts, however, the Bears only have $5.5 million in available cap space at the moment. Clearly, if they wanted Foles they would have to create some more space, which makes them a less likely destination than Indy.
