Career Backup QB Mike Glennon Will Average $14.5 Million Annually With Chicago Bears

The desperation to find a starting quarterback in the NFL is palpable with any franchise that doesn’t have one, and the Chicago Bears certainly qualify.

Until now, at least they hope, after signing career backup Mike Glennon to a deal worth crazy money.

Three years, $43.5 million for a guy who’s mostly been holding a clipboard is asinine, but apparently that’s what watching Jay Cutler throw it to the other team for a handful of years does.

Glennon may find some success in Chicago, but it’s tough to understand this Brock Osweiler-esque contract at present.
