The Chicago Bears have agreed to release quarterback Nick Foles, the team confirmed Saturday night.
The Bears originally acquired Foles two seasons ago in a trade with Jacksonville for a fourth-round draft pick.
After starting seven games in 2020, the Super Bowl LII MVP logged only one start last season. He carried a $10.67 million salary-cap hit in 2022.
Chicago general manager Ryan Poles confirmed in March that the team had been trying to trade Foles after adding veteran backup Trevor Siemian in free agency.
