Bears sign veteran quarterback Brian Hoyer

With a number of quarterback destinations going away via draft picks, the remaining veterans are going to be scrambling for a chair.
Brian Hoyer found his, signing with the Bears, according to multiple reports.
Hoyer had visited the Broncos (who never seemed all that interested) and the Jets (who seem destined to bring Ryan Fitzpatrick back at some point).
Both took quarterbacks, with the Broncos getting Paxton Lynch in the first and the Jets taking Christian Hackenberg in the second.
Hoyer now gives the Bears a veteran option behind Jay Cutler, since they apparently weren’t thrilled with the idea of going into a season with David Fales or Matt Blanchard in the number two job.
The Bears didn’t draft one, so Hoyer moved quickly to find a home.
