The Chicago Bears<\/a> continue to make moves with the free agency window open, as they\u2019ve reportedly agreed to a massive deal with linebacker Tremaine Edmunds, per ESPN.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The deal is said to be worth $72 million, $50 million of which is fully guaranteed, over four years. It would be the largest four-year deal for an inside linebacker in the NFL.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chicago has loads of cap space to work with this offseason, an estimated $70 million following their trade with the Carolina Panthers<\/a> to land wide receiver D.J. Moore and draft capital.\u00a0<\/p>\n

They already added to their defense with former Philadelphia Eagles linebacker T.J. Edwards joining on a three-year deal.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But Edmunds is their big-ticket free agent now after this reported deal. The Buffalo Bills\u2019<\/a> first-round pick in 2018 has been a two-time Pro Bowler in his five seasons with the organization, and hasn\u2019t had a single season with under 100 tackles produced.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In 2022, the 24-year-old Edmunds tallied 102 tackles (six for loss) 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.\u00a0<\/p>\n

For his career, Edmunds has already totaled 565 tackles, 6.5 sacks, 32 tackles for loss, five interceptions and two forced fumbles in 74 games.\u00a0<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

Edwards and Edmunds will be a fun duo to watch in the Windy City, as they both produce tackles at a high rate. That\u2019s just what the doctored ordered for a Bears team that struggled to get opponents on the turf. Chicago was ninth in the NFL in missed tackles with 747 last season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This likely isn\u2019t the last of Poles\u2019 free agent spending spree, as he\u2019s still well-equipped with salary cap to revamp his roster.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Other than the linebackers, he\u2019s focused on the offensive line around quarterback Justin Fields, as guard Nate Davis is reportedly joining the team as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
