5. Brian Hoyer, Chicago Bears
The Bears signed Hoyer to a one-year, $2 million deal in 2016. He performed somewhat impressively while he covered for an injured Jay Cutler in six games last year. Despite the team’s struggles to win, Hoyer completed 67 percent of his passes, threw six touchdowns and remained clean throughout that stretch.
Unfortunately, Hoyer departed the season early after he suffered a broken arm in October. Prior to Chicago, Hoyer played with the Houston Texans, Cleveland Browns, and Arizona Cardinals. His career originally began in New England in 2009. Cleveland of course, is where Hoyer saw the most starting action.
Sadly, Hoyer’s knack for getting injured makes him a risky free agent pick up, if the Bears decide move on.
