Keenum's veteran experience integral to Williams' growth; sixth-best backup situation in NFL.

Case Keenum, age 38, was brought in as a veteran presence in the QB room and has been integral to Caleb Williams' growth and development. Head coach Ben Johnson credited Keenum's experience—including 66 regular-season starts, a 2017 season going 11-3 with Minnesota and reaching the NFC Championship, and recent 2023 starts with Houston (64.2% completion, 1 TD, 3 INTs)—as invaluable for young players to lean on, particularly in high-pressure playoff situations. The source ranks Chicago's backup situation sixth-best in the NFL, with Keenum as a capable third option.
