Case Keenum and Tyson Bagent both trotted onto the field for Chicago’s first offensive snap, with Bagent split out wide while Keenum took the snap, handed the ball off and promptly headed t

Rather than rush through them to meet the deadline for this article, I’m going to put together a separate article next week breaking down some of the more in
