Chicago is not revealing its starting quarterback for Sunday’s game vs. the Jets. But follow the signs…. Cc: @tyschmit Via @AdamSchefter on X

What happened: Chicago has not publicly named its starting quarterback for Sunday's game against the Jets. Adam Schefter suggested the choice may already be clear, writing, "follow the signs."

Why it matters: The call matters because quarterback selection drives the weekly game plan, from protections to receiver usage and tempo. It also keeps extra focus on Sunday's meeting with the New York Jets as kickoff approaches.

What to watch: The next firm clues will come from Chicago's pregame warmup order and inactive list before kickoff. Sunday's game will show whether the public hints matched the final decision.
