After Bagent signed a two-year, $10 million extension with the Bears, he led them to a thrilling victory in Chicago’s preseason finale.
Bagent played the entire second half, connecting on 20 of 28 passes for 212 yards, and closed out a two-minute drive to seal the win with a pass to J.T. Walker in the end zone.

Starting quarterback Caleb Williams closed out the first half with a two-minute drive that started to erase the Bears’ 17-point deficit before halftime. Williams ended the first half the same way he started last Sunday night’s preseason win versus the Bills, completing 5 of 6 passes, highlighted by a touchdown pass to Rome Odunze.
Bears head coach Ben Johnson was impressed by Williams’ first-half performance, per NFL.com.
“The two minutes right before half, that was a good thing to see,” Johnson said. “We hadn’t really had much success before halftime in the two-minute drill, so I was pleased to see that.”
Bears quarterback Tyson Bagent earned his extension amid trade rumors. Bagent agreed to a two-year extension that could reach up to $16 million with incentives.
“The Bears are signing QB Tyson Bagent to a two-year, $10M contract extension with a max value of $16M with incentives, his reps at Milk and Honey Sports and Key Player Management tell The Insiders.”
Bagent’s new deal keeps him with the Bears until 2027.
