2. What are their plans for addressing the quarterback position?
It’s hard to talk about the Bears’ offseason plans and not wonder about how they’re going to address the quarterback position. While Pace has publicly backed Trubisky as the Bears’ starter in 2020, that promise doesn’t mean much so early into the offseason.
Even if that’s true, Chicago is expected to bring in a veteran to replace free agent Chase Daniel — one that can legitimately challenge Trubisky for the starting job, unlike Daniel. The Bears could also choose to draft a young prospect to develop behind Trubisky and a veteran free agent.
Then there’s the matter of Trubisky’s fifth-year option, which the Bears have until May to pick up. Will they? Won’t they? Not likely that we’ll get a definitive answer from these press conferences, but there’s no doubt the question will be asked.
