Timeline of Nick Foles' Rollercoaster Career with Eagles, Rams, Chiefs, Jaguars

Nick Foles has lived so many lives throughout his NFL career it's sometimes hard to remember he's still just 31 years old. From middling draft pick to Super Bowl savior to multiple benchings, the quarterback has experienced every high and low there is in professional football.

The next chapter of Foles' career began on Wednesday when the Chicago Bears reportedly traded a compensatory fourth-round draft to acquire the Texas native from the Jacksonville Jaguars, per ESPN's Adam Schefter.

It's been a long, strange road for Foles in the NFL. Here's how he got here:

The Philadelphia Eagles drafted Foles in the third round of the NFL draft (88th overall), giving him a four-year contract to back up starter Michael Vick.
Vick is sidelined with a concussion leading Foles to make his first NFL start in Week 11 against Washington, where he completed 21-of-46 passes for 204 yards, two interceptions and no touchdowns in a 31-6 blowout loss.
Ahead of Week 13, Eagles coach Andy Reid announces Foles will remain the starter for the rest of the season.
On December 26, Foles is placed on injured reserve with a broken hand and misses the rest of the season.
