The Chicago Bears announced an the inclusion of backup veteran quarterback Case Keenum on the non-football injury list on the first day of training camp.

Case Keenum didn’t last long on the non-football injury list. The Bears activated their backup quarterback from the NFI on Sunday, one day after the veteran was one of four play

The Bears activated QB Case Keenum to practice starting Wednesday just a day after he was put on the inactive list.

Case Keenum is officially ready to practice. Via the NFL’s daily transaction wire, Keenum passed his physical on Sunday and the Bears have taken him off the non-football injury list. Keenum, 37, is in his first season with Chicago after spending the last two years in his third stint with Houston. He signed a one-year deal with the Bears in April.

Before the veterans officially reported to Chicago Bears training camp, the franchise put four players on the Active/Non-Football injury list. But just before Tuesday’s training camp debut, one player has already come off of the list.

As the Chicago Bears prepare for camp, one of their best players remains out of action, and the team may still be looking for help at wide receiver.

The Chicago Bears have made another roster move with veteran quarterback Case Keenum after placing him on the NFI list ahead of camp.

Keenum (undisclosed) was placed on the active/non-football injury list by the Bears on Saturday. Once he's ready to start practicing again, the quarterback can return from the active/NFI list at any time during training camp and the preseason.
