Chicago Bears make significant offseason moves to reshape their roster
Summary

The Chicago Bears focused on roster changes this offseason after an 11-6 finish in 2025. Key departures included linebacker Tremaine Edmunds and center Drew Dalman, alongside trades and free-agent exits. The Bears reinforced their offensive line by acquiring Garrett Bradbury and selecting Logan Jones in the draft. However, concerns remain regarding their pass rush, as the team did not add any edge rushers in free agency or the draft, despite ranking 30th in pressure rate last season. The Bears' management is under pressure to improve defensively going into the season.
