QB Roster Question

[BearFan PHX]

Caleb is the starter. I am a huge fan of Tyson Bagent's as well. I think he is the backup. Case Keenum is here to provice Caleb with advice from his experience.

So do we keep 3 QBs on the roster? If you put Bagent on the practice squad someone will steal him and make him QB2 somewhere. And Keenum is too old to even put on the PS.

What do you think we will do?

If we get a good trade offer for Bagent, then I understand that - but they JUST extended him, but I guess that also might help bring interest in a trade too...

I think Bagent is a more valuable backup than Keenum, but is Keenum just for training camp?

Reports about Caleb not getting film help tells me we are going 3 QBs.  He needed this last year, but it's the Bears and they dont know what to do.  Keenum will teach him the ropes from what BJ wants.  BJ will do his film time but Keenum will help answer questions and do film in between.

When they brought in Keenum, they pretty well made the decision to keep 3 on the roster. There is someone else on the roster they can hide on the practice squad. They are allowed to carry two vets on the PS. Maybe one of the WRs?

So with the new rule added in 2023, there is a good chance they go with 3 QBs on the 53-man. 

Without a 3rd QB, you can only have 48 players active on game day, so 5 players on the 53-man don't dress every week. However, the 3rd QB does not count towards the 48. So if they did keep Keenum, he would take up a 53-man slot but would not impact the game-day 48-man roster (and would actually make it 49).
