Bears consider signing Cam Jordan to bolster pass rush
Summary

The Chicago Bears are exploring the possibility of signing Cam Jordan, an eight-time Pro Bowler, as they aim to strengthen their pass rush ahead of the 2026 season. Currently, Montez Sweat leads one side of the defensive line, while Austin Booker has not yet proven himself. Jordan, an experienced veteran from the New Orleans Saints, could provide a much-needed boost. His familiarity with Bears coach Dennis Allen, who previously served as the Saints’ defensive coordinator, may influence his decision. Jordan played in all 17 games last season, achieving 10.5 sacks and 15 tackles for loss, marking a productive year for the 36-year-old. Although the Saints have offered him a new deal, he has not signed yet, leaving the door open for a potential move to Chicago.
