Who Should I Start? Case Keenum or Skylar Thompson

Sunday, July 20, 8:13 PM

Chicago Bears quarterback Case Keenum (undisclosed) was activated off of the active/Non-Football Injury list. The veteran landed on the list on Saturday. However, he's now able to be on the field for training camp. Keenum played for seven different teams before signing with the Bears in April. He's appeared in 80 regular-season contests, throwing for 15,175 yards, 79 touchdowns, and 51 picks off of 62.3% passing. Keenum missed the entire 2024 campaign because of a foot injury. While it appears the signal-caller is finally healthy, he won't have any value for fantasy managers, considering he is projected to be the No. 3 quarterback on the depth chart behind Caleb Williams and Tyson Bagent.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are signing free-agent quarterback Skylar Thompson on Tuesday, according to Ari Meirov of the 33rd Team. Thompson, a 2022 seventh-round pick out of Kansas State, has played in 10 regular-season games (three starts) for the Miami Dolphins. Overall, he has completed 58.7% of his passes for 721 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions. While the Steelers might have a quarterback issue to address this offseason, Thompson is clearly not going to be viewed as a serious candidate to start next season. The team is undecided on the futures of Justin Fields and Russell Wilson, so Thompson could find his way into the QB2 or QB3 role for Mike Tomlin in 2025, though it's early in the process.
