The Bears released quarterback Trevor Siemian on Friday, an expected move made just hours after they signed ex-Panther P.J. Walker to back up Justin Fields.
Siemian, who had one year left on a two-year deal he signed last offseason, started one game for the Bears last season. It was a notorious one — Nov. 27 at the Jets, Siemian was scratched during pregame drills with what the team called an oblique injury. Nathan Peterman was named the starter, but Siemian went through pregame warmups and started anyway.
