The Chicago Bears are considering free agent signings to bolster their roster ahead of the 2026 NFL season. With an estimated $8.1 million in cap space, they could target veterans such as Kenny Moore, Joey Bosa, and Jadeveon Clowney. Concerns in the cornerback position make a move for Moore significant, particularly with the performance issues of current players. Bosa's future is uncertain due to speculation over retirement, while Clowney remains active in the league and could provide a strong addition at edge rusher. General manager Ryan Poles may pursue one or more of these potential signings soon.
