Last offseason when the Chicago Bears publically stated their intentions to bring in competition for Mitchell Trubisky, fans were clamoring for the team to go out and sign Cam Newton. Coming off a nagging shoulder injury from the 2019 season, teams were understandably skeptical and without being able to get the proper physicals in (due to COVID), many teams like the Bears passed on Cam.
He ended up signing with the Patriots while the Chicago Bears set their sights on Nick Foles and Ryan Pace was absolutely destroyed. After all, he did pass on a former MVP, career starter, and dual-threat quarterback in favor of Foles.
