Nathan Peterman to start for Bears after Trevor Siemian injured in pregame warmups

Mike Florio and Chris Simms analyze why it’ll be an uphill battle for the NFLPA to prove its allegation that teams had agreed to not make fully-guaranteed contracts available to “certain quarterbacks.”

The Bears are down to their third-string quarterback today against the Jets.

Nathan Peterman, who was just called up from the practice squad yesterday, will start today.

Bears starting quarterback Justin Fields has been ruled out with an injury to his non-throwing shoulder. Second string quarterback Trevor Siemian was preparing to start, but he suffered an oblique injury during pregame warmups, and that leaves Peterman as the only healthy quarterback on the roster.

Siemian will be available to go in if Peterman gets hurt, but Siemian will not be 100 percent after the injury.
