The Chicago Bears continue to make moves with the free agency window open, as they’ve reportedly agreed to a massive deal with linebacker Tremaine Edmunds, per ESPN.
But Edmunds is their big-ticket free agent now after this reported deal. The Buffalo Bills’ first-round pick in 2018 has been a two-time Pro Bowler in his five seasons with the organization, and hasn’t had a single season with under 100 tackles produced.
In 2022, the 24-year-old Edmunds tallied 102 tackles with one sack, seven passes defended in 13 games for Buffalo. His Pro Bowl years were back-to-back in 2019 and 2020, which were just his second and third seasons in the NFL. Bears GM Ryan Poles knows his defense needs to be better all around, and Edmunds comes in as an immediate leader at the second level.
