Tremaine Edmunds And The Bears Took First Step Towards A Divorce
Sports Mockery • • sports
Key Points:
- The Chicago Bears are facing a $10 million salary cap deficit and have granted linebacker Tremaine Edmunds permission to seek a trade, signaling their intent to move him and gain $15 million in cap space.
- Edmunds's potential departure complicates the Bears' linebacker situation, as they have injury concerns with T.J. Edwards, free agents Noah Sewell and D’Marco Jackson, and no clear foundational player at the position.
- The Bears are likely to prioritize retaining D’Marco Jackson due to his familiarity with the defense and cost-effectiveness, while possibly exploring free agency options like Demario Davis for additional linebacker support.
- The 2026 draft presents a strong linebacker class with prospects such as Sonny Styles and Anthony Hill Jr
