Ryan Fitzpatrick (age: 38)

As a one-season rental, the Bears could do a lot worse than Fitzpatrick, who managed to keep Miami Dolphins first-round pick Tua Tagovailoa on the bench a lot longer than most expected. Fitzpatrick started seven games in 2020 (appeared in nine) and threw for 2,091 yards, 13 touchdowns and eight interceptions.
