It’s easy to look at the Bears’ newest coaching additions and start connecting the dots between them and the veteran quarterbacks they’ve worked with. Quarterbacks that could become available this offseason. Names like Nick Foles and Andy Dalton, who have worked with DeFilippo and Lazor.

While the Bears remain publicly committed to Mitchell Trubisky in 2020, he’s likely not going to get the benefit of an entire season to struggle. The Bears’ quarterbacks room is going to look a lot different, due in most part to Chase Daniel and Tyler Bray set to become free agents.

Chicago is likely going to turn to a veteran this offseason to serve as competition for Trubisky, and they could also turn to the draft for a young prospect. Sure, the hirings of Lazor and DeFilippo, who both have a track record of success with quarterbacks, could be a last ditch effort to get the most of our Trubisky. But it could also be about shoring up the QBs room, whoever will be a part of it.
