In a competitive battle, Bears are expected to name Mitchell Trubisky the starting QB, source tells ESPN. It’s due to his progression, leadership and overall performance throughout camp. Nick Foles made decision difficult for Matt Nagy, but the team feels strong about its QBs.

RYQUELL ARMSTEADRB, JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS

Jaguars placed RB Ryquell Armstead on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
Dubbed the main beneficiary early on following the Leonard Fournette ouster, Amstead is back on the COVID-19 list for the second time this summer. He's also battled a groin injury in between. It's let Devine Ozigbo and rookie UDFA James Robinson run away with lead-back duties with Chris Thompson handling clear pass-game work.

ADRIAN PETERSONRB, UNSIGNED FREE AGENT

Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio reports a "couple of teams" have already inquired about free agent Adrian Peterson.
Peterson is naturally being linked to any organization that did its due diligence with Leonard Fournette — Patriots, Bills, Bears — the moment he was released. It also makes sense the Jaguars check in on the 35-year-old given his history with OC Jay Gruden. The veteran could still re-sign with Washington after Week 1 since his salary would no longer be guaranteed at that point.

Sources: The #Texans and franchise QB Deshaun Watson have agreed to terms on a huge new extension worth $160M over 4 new years. Houston locks up its QB through 2025 – and Watson gets paid... with a chance to get paid again soon.

The #Jaguars are cutting both backup QBs Mike Glennon and Josh Dobbs, source said. A surprise. So it’s starter Gardner Minshew and backup Jake Luton from Oregon State… for now. One could return after the 53-man roster shakes out.

I swore the coaches did, and he's always been a favorite of Roethlisberger. Unless they're taking the chance he doesn't get signed and bring him back after Week 1 with a nonguaranteed deal?

Weird move, not something I would have classified as a need for them...
