Trevor Siemian will take Dalton’s spot as the backup quarterback for Justin Fields.
As it turns out, the Saints and Bears swapped backup QBs this offseason. Former Saints backup Trevor Siemian is on his way to Chicago, with Dalton headed to New Orleans.
When the Bears signed Dalton last offseason, the intention was for him to start. But after the team traded up to draft Justin Fields, and Dalton suffered a bone bruise injury in Week 2, those plans changed. Fields entered the starting lineup in relief of Dalton, and was eventually named the full time starter ahead of their Week 5 matchup against the Raiders. But when Fields went down in Week 11 with cracked ribs, Dalton was inserted back into the lineup.
In the end, Dalton completed 63.1% of his passes for 1,515 yards, eight touchdowns and nine interceptions for the Bears. The touchdowns, yards and his 76.9 quarterback rating were all career lows. In games he started, the team went 3-3.
