Chase Daniel Fantasy

The Detroit Lions agreed to a three-year, $13.05 million deal with former Chicago Bears quarterback Chase Daniel on Tuesday, according to a source. The deal includes a voidable clause. Daniel spent the last two years in Chicago, playing in eight games behind Mitch Trubisky. He's also played with the Saints, Chiefs and Eagles, but now he'll head to Detroit and back up Matthew Stafford, who missed considerable time with a back injury in 2019. Daniel would only become a low-end QB2 in fantasy if Stafford misses any more time due to injury.

The Cleveland Browns are expected to pursue Chicago Bears impending free-agent quarterback Chase Daniel when free agency begins. The Browns need a strong veteran backup behind Baker Mayfield next season. Cleveland's backup last year was Drew Stanton, but he's set to be a free agent next month as well. Behind him was Garrett Gilbert. Daniel played in parts of eight games for the Bears in the last two seasons, throwing six touchdowns and four interceptions. He'd only be in the mix as a low-end QB2 if he were to sign with the Browns and Mayfield were to get hurt in 2020 and miss some time.

Chicago Bears quarterback Chase Daniel completed 22-of-30 passes for 231 with two touchdowns and two interceptions in the Bears 24-21 loss to the Raiders in London. The Bears offense was atrocious in the first half as they were held scoreless. Daniel loosened up in the second half but two terrible throws turned into costly mistakes. The veteran has filled in admirably over the past two games with starter Mitch Trubisky injured but Daniel certainly has limitations the more he plays. The Bears will be on bye next week and will return against the Saints in Week 7.
