Because Grasu needed those snaps at Center and Whitehair needed those snaps at G.
Whitehair played the entire prior season at C, he knows how to do it. We're only hopeful Long and Sitton play G all year. But we know chances are Whitehair will be back at G and Grasu in at C.

Personally, I hope they take their time with him. Once the regular season starts the D starts playing REAL D and not this mostly straight forward stuff. Our first month of the schedule is a little rough, so lets let Glennon take a beating first.
I do like what I have seen so far though and that is exciting for a Bears fan!

Shaw likely gets picked up if waived.

Hmm... you have a good point there. Bears don't really need Sanchez.
Or the announcement that Sanchez is not playing this last game might just mean they've seen enough of Sanchez (playing) for him to be our QB2 or 3. And Bears think Trub would benefit getting all those game snaps.

I really like Shaw. But I'm rather certain he wouldn't get picked up. He didn't get picked up last year... what's changed?

Unless that was on other teams I sure hope they don't think only seeing the 3 series in preseason and practice was enough to evaluate.

His tibia isn't protruding from his skin this preseason.

That's the first thing I always look for in a QB.

There is zero reason to put him on the ir now when he can be stashed on the PUP for the next 2 months while they figure out if a) he can return b) we're good enough to need him

Id be pleasantly shocked if sanchito is cut but I think the plan has always been
Glennon starts
Sanchito backs up in game for injury /poor performance
If long term injury to glennon or he just sucks after x number of games then
Trubisky starts next game
Sanchito backs up
I don't see how people think Shaw is making the team....he already was cut and in his car on his way home when we needed a camp arm in may....then by just hung around as a 4th camp arm/4th preseason qb.
Wouldn't mind if he was brought back to the ps buy he's a bigger waste on the 53 than sanchito

Injured reserve. Not waived. If he had been waived. A leg injury like that, where he wasn't going to be with a team for the entire year might just be a slightly different situation than this year. There were teams lined up behind us when we claimed him.

Now that Trubisky is looking like he would at least be servicable as a rookie QB if he had to play... Do away with Sanchez the player. Wouldn't mind Sanchez the coach.

Fox is so damn stubborn I really can see him carrying 3 QB's and leaving Trubs at 3rd string all year. Hopefully he doesn't. Although part of me wants to watch this place burn to the ground if Fox plays Sanchez in a regular season game before Trubisky. Would be a melt down for the ages!

Or they plan on cutting him and don't want to risk him getting injured and owing him an injury settlement.

Well the good news is, if he does that, Chicago will have a new coach next year. I don't believe Fox would survive another under-producing year.
