Case Keenum Re-Signs with the Bears

Monday, March 9, 5:32 PM

The Chicago Bears have re-signed quarterback Case Keenum to a two-year, $5.5 million deal with a maximum value of $8 million, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. Keenum hasn't played an NFL snap since 2023, and he spent 2025 in the third-string role behind Caleb Williams and Tyson Bagent. The depth chart isn't expected to change much in 2026, so we're a bit surprised to see the Bears make such a financial commitment to a third-string quarterback. With that said, he offers indisputed experience, depth, and a veteran presence in an otherwise young quarterback room. Chicago will hope its investment in Keenum ends up being an exercise of caution, as he'd likely only get into a game if both Williams and Bagent were hurt (or if Bagent gets traded).

Josh Allen News

Josh Allen's Late-Game Heroics Push Bills Past Texans

Sunday, September 13, 12:45 PM

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen finished Week 1 with 334 passing yards and two touchdowns, including a deep pass with under two minutes to play that lifted his team to a 36-31 victory against the host Houston Texans. The home team took a 31-30 lead with 6:44 left to play on a 58-yard field goal by Ka'imi Fairbairn. Buffalo responded with Josh Palmer catching Allen's 34-yard pass with 1:36 left in the game. Allen, who turned 30 in the offseason, also hit DJ Moore for a 43-yard touchdown in the first half, and added two rushing touchdowns to his tally for the day. The four-time Pro Bowl selection looks to build on a 2025 campaign in which he completed a career-high 69.3% of his passes for 3,668 yards and a 25:10 TD:INT ratio. Allen remains a must-start as Buffalo starts the season in the win column.
