Bears backup quarterback Tyson Bagent has proved his worth — especially with new head coach Ben Johnson. Bagent earned a reported $10 million two-year deal from the Bears, in a significant raise.

The Chicago Bears and backup quarterback Tyson Bagent have agreed on a two-year contract extension that keeps him with the team through the 2027 campaign.
