The Chicago Bears have signed DT John Jenkins to a contract on Friday, according to his agent.
Congrats to @jenkinsjohn6 on agreeing to terms with the @ChicagoBears #Bears
Jenkins was visiting with the Bears and reportedly had a meeting scheduled with the Colts, but it appears as though Chicago was able to close the deal and prevent him from heading to Indianapolis.
Jenkins, 27, is a former third-round pick of the Saints back in 2013. Jenkins spent three years in New Orleans before he was waived during the 2016 season.
