The excerpt highlights the unusual situation for the Chicago Bears as they prepare to start their third different quarterback, Tyson Bagent, in just four games this season. This marks a rare occurrence in the NFL, paralleling the 1997 Jaguars, who had three quarterbacks start their first four games.
The Bears have chosen not to announce their starting quarterback ahead of the game against the Jets, a decision that the NFL might want to rethink in terms of transparency.
The Jets are looking to break a streak of 20 games without an interception, and their quarterback, Geno Smith, who previously struggled with interceptions, has notably improved this season with a high completion rate.
The Jets are also in a tough position, struggling against teams with winning records, having lost 14 of their last 15 such matchups.
