The Bears named Blake their backup quarterback Sunday, the Associated Press reports.
ANALYSIS
With Chad Hutchinson demoted from No. 1 to No. 4 on the team's quarterback depth chart, Blake will back up Kyle Orton to begin the season. Chicago will likely stick with Orton through thick and thin this year, though Blake would be called upon if injury befalls the rookie.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2004
2003
Blake will compete for the primary backup quarterback position, behind superstar Donavan McNabb, with Koy Detmer.
Blake did a credible job with the Ravens in 2002, throwing 13 touchdown passes in 10 starts, but now he's headed to Arizona, where he'll be working with the youngest and least talented wide receiver group in the league. Blake hasn't done a lot of scrambling since his days with the Bengals, but it would serve him well if his feet remember, fast. There's not a lot of fantasy value to be had here. The Cardinals may decide to junk the season and go with young QB Josh McCown at some point in the second half of the year.

According to offensive coordinator Ron Turner, Blake will receive additional playing time during Saturday’s preseason game against the Colts, the Daily Herald reports. “He’s played in similar systems in the past, so he’s got enough of a working knowledge to get some time in,” Turner said. “If he’s going against Kurt (Kittner) for that third quarterback spot, we have to see what they both do.”
