**[Case Keenum](https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/K/KeenCa00.htm?utm_medium=linker&utm_source=www.profootballrumors.com&utm_campaign=2026-03-09_pfr)** will indeed remain in place with the Bears next season, but he will not do so as a coach. The veteran quarterback has agreed to a new contract.
Keenum is set to re-sign on a two-year deal with a base value of $5.5MM, [ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports](https://x.com/AdamSchefter/status/2031099858296189178). The pact can max out at $8MM. Keenum could of course still be a coaching candidate in the future, but for now his playing days will continue.
