The Bears on Tuesday agreed to a one-year deal with Andy Dalton, and many of their fans are nothing short of disappointed.
The Bears have been connected in rumors to Russell Wilson and Deshaun Watson. While those moves could still happen at some point, Dalton is hardly the consolation prize Bears fans were hoping for.
The reactions to Chicago giving him a $10 million deal were humorous:
Dalton, 33, spent last season with the Dallas Cowboys. He began as the backup to Dak Prescott but became the starter after Prescott’s season-ending leg injury. The Cowboys went 4-5 under Dalton, who passed for 14 touchdowns and 8 interceptions. But Dalton also dealt with a concussion following a nasty hit and the effects of COVID-19.
Best of luck to the Bears on improving from their 8-8 season with Nick Foles and Dalton at quarterback. Mitchell Trubisky is a free agent.
