Hmmm...
On March 23, 2017, Sanchez signed a one-year contract with the
Chicago Bears.
[120] The Bears had noted the "positive influence" Sanchez had as a mentor to rookie quarterback
Dak Prescott and looked for him to play a similar role in the development of rookie
Mitchell Trubisky.
[121] On May 30, 2017, Sanchez suffered a small knee injury in his left knee. He missed the remainder of OTA's and the minicamp. In response, the Bears rescinded the waiver request to
Connor Shaw following the injury to Sanchez.
[122] Sanchez made the Bears' final roster third on the quarterback depth chart behind Trubisky and
Mike Glennon, but did not play at all in 2017.
