Former Penn State quarterback Trace McSorley has landed with a new team. Per a report from NFL insider Jordan Schultz, the Bears have signed the ex-Nittany Lion to the practice squad.

News of Chicago’s signing comes as Bears starting quarterback Justin Fields deals with a dislocated thumb injury. He sustained the injury in Sunday’s 19-13 loss to the Vikings.

Fields popped his thumb back into place but struggled to grip the football. He eventually left the game, turning the offense over to Tyson Bagent.

McSorley spent the first three seasons of his NFL career with the Baltimore Ravens. He had a one-year stop with the Arizona Cardinals in 2022 and spent time with the New England Patriots during the 2023 preseason.
