Bears Sign Ex-USC Quarterback Miller Moss as Undrafted Free Agent

The low-cost pickup reinforces Chicago's focus on developing depth behind its new franchise quarterback.

Overview

  • The Bears added Louisville quarterback Miller Moss as an undrafted free agent Saturday, reuniting him with starter Caleb Williams.
  • Moss was Williams’ teammate and later successor at USC, though he was benched after a three-interception game against Washington and replaced by Jordan Maiava.
  • After transferring to Louisville, Moss started 12 games and completed 64.2% of his passes for 2,679 yards with 16 touchdowns and seven interceptions, then earned Boca Raton Bowl MVP honors.
  • He joins a quarterback room of Williams, established backup Tyson Bagent, and veteran Case Keenum, with an expected competition for a practice-squad or depth role.
  • General manager Ryan Poles said the team is not shopping Bagent and framed Moss’s signing as part of a plan to develop quarterbacks by adding competition and potential future value.
