The Chicago Bears will start Nathan Peterman at quarterback in Sunday’s game against the New York Jets after Trevor Siemian hurt his oblique in pregame warm-ups.
Siemian had been slated to start after Justin Fields was announced among the Bears’ inactives because of a separated left shoulder.
Peterman was elevated from the practice squad Saturday to serve as Siemian’s backup. Now Siemian will back up Peterman.
