In a recent interview, backup quarterback Bagent expressed his readiness to take on the role as the primary backup for the Chicago football team. After starting several games last season, Bagent has wholeheartedly accepted his new position since the team chose USC quarterback Caleb Williams as their top pick.

When asked if he has done enough to earn the team's confidence as the primary backup, Bagent responded thoughtfully, "I might not be improving my football skills directly during workouts like this. However, the mental advantage it gives me in terms of endurance is invaluable. It gives me an edge when facing challenging situations, such as training camp, where others may complain about the schedule. I can remind myself that I have experienced far worse."

With the expectation of getting the majority of snaps for the NFC franchise, Bagent sees this as an excellent opportunity to set himself apart from his fellow teammates, Brett Rypien and Austin Reed. This could potentially lead to a significant advantage for Bagent in terms of playing time and showcasing his abilities on the field.

While Bagent acknowledges that physical improvement may not be the immediate result of his workouts, he firmly believes that building mental resilience and toughness will pay off in the long run. By pushing himself to endure difficult challenges, Bagent aims to prove his worth as a reliable backup and potentially position himself for future opportunities as a starting quarterback.

As the Chicago football team prepares for the upcoming season, Bagent's determination and mental fortitude will undoubtedly make him a valuable asset to the squad. His willingness to embrace his backup role and use it to his advantage sets a positive example for his teammates and showcases his dedication to the team's success.

With the support of his coaches and teammates, Bagent is ready to step up when called upon and prove that he is more than capable of handling the responsibilities of being the primary backup. As training camp approaches, all eyes will be on Bagent as he strives to make a lasting impression and contribute to the success of the Chicago football team.
