Ben Johnson’s defiant Chicago Bears quarterback message after Packers letdown

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Chicago Bears Ben Johnson

The Chicago Bears’ backup quarterback plan worked in their first two opportunities. But in Week 5 against the Green Bay Packers, everything fell apart.

Tyson Bagent earned the start after leading the team to a win over the New York Jets. But against the Packers, Bagent completed 12-of-21 passes for 87 yards and two interceptions. He was eventually replaced by Case Keenum, who completed 11-of-19 passes for 108 yards and a pick. Keenum lost a fumble as well.

In terms of the Bears’ Week 6 quarterback plans, things are still up in the air. Caleb Williams is inching closer to making his return and may end up getting cleared. But if not, head coach Ben Johnson will again have to choose between Bagent and Keenum.

That’s not a decision Johnson is afraid to make though. The head coach’s confidence in his quarterback room won’t be shaken after one bad game.

Williams gives the Bears a completely different dynamic under center. But all three quarterbacks have won games for Chicago in 2026. That’s the mentality Johnson will be approaching his Week 6 quarterback decision with, via Cassie Carlson of Fox 32.

“I think we have three guys that can win games in this league,” Johnson said.

If Williams is cleared to play, Johnson’s decision will be made for him. But if the Bears decide to remain cautious for one more week, it’ll be the biggest talking point in Chicago until Sunday. The franchise’s injury report will be watched carefully leading up to the Atlanta Falcons matchup.

Ultimately, the Bears did go 2-1 without their starting quarterback. Things could be a lot worse. And if Chicago is forced to turn to a backup under center once more, Johnson won’t falter.
