Campbell, who was drafted by the Washington Redskins in the first round in 2005 and spent his first four seasons as a starter, will likely now play a backup role in Chicago to Jay Cutler. The 30-year-old Campbell has been plagued by injuries the last two seasons with the Oakland Raiders.

The Bears' signing of Campbell leaves the Dallas Cowboys scrambling for a Plan B for their own backup quarterback slot; Schefter reports that Kyle Orton may be their best option.
