Who Should I Start? Case Keenum or Riley Leonard

Chicago Bears quarterback Case Keenum (leg) has made the 53-man roster and will open 2025 as the team's third-string signal-caller. Keenum has been dealing with a minor leg injury this month, but it won't be enough to keep him off the roster. The well-traveled 37-year-old joined the Bears in free agency in April after a second stint with the Houston Texans. He didn't play at all last year after suffering a foot injury and hasn't attempted 100-plus passes in a season since 2019, which he spent with Washington. With Caleb Williams entrenched as QB1 and Tyson Bagent locked into the No. 2 role, Keenum shouldn't see any meaningful action this season unless things go catastrophically wrong for the Bears.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Riley Leonard completed 15 of his 20 passes for 189 yards and a touchdown and added a 14-yard rush in a 41-14 preseason win over the Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday. Leonard got the start and looked sharp in the contest, finding Laquon Treadwell for a 59-yard touchdown in the second quarter. The Colts used a sixth-round pick on the former Notre Dame QB in this past NFL draft and he appears likely to open the year as the team's third quarterback behind Daniel Jones and Anthony Richardson Sr. The Colts will now begin preparing for Week 1 and the Miami Dolphins.
