Chicago Bears QB Depth Chart 2023: Who's the Starter?

The Bears' quarterback depth chart is set for 2023, with Justin Fields as the clear-cut starter.

Behind Fields, Trevor Siemian is expected to serve as the primary backup, while Nathan Peterman will likely be the third-string quarterback. Ryan Griffin, who was signed by the Bears in March, is also expected to compete for a spot on the roster.

Justin Fields

Fields is entering his third season with the Bears and is expected to take a major step forward in 2023. The 23-year-old quarterback showed flashes of his potential in 2022, but he also struggled with consistency. Fields will need to improve his accuracy and decision-making in order to take the next step in his development.

Trevor Siemian

Siemian is a veteran quarterback who has started games for the Broncos, Saints, and Jets. He is a solid backup option for the Bears and is capable of stepping in and starting if needed.

Nathan Peterman

Peterman is a young quarterback who has yet to start an NFL game. He has spent the past two seasons with the Raiders and is looking to earn a spot on the Bears' roster in 2023.

Ryan Griffin

Griffin is a veteran quarterback who has spent time with the Buccaneers, Saints, and Ravens. He is a long shot to make the Bears' roster, but he could provide depth at the quarterback position.
