Last week, Bears general manager Ryan Pace announced the team plans on starting quarterback Jay Cutler despite temporarily benching him late last season.

During the offseason, the Bears have re-signed backup quarterback Jimmy Clausen, signed linebacker Pernell McPhee and signed safety Antrel Rolle.

The Bears finished last season just 5-11 and head coach Marc Trestman was fired. He was replaced by John Fox, who was shown the door by the Denver Broncos after last season as well.
