Chicago Bears Sign DT John Jenkins

After missing out on the big name free agents, Ryan Pace and the Chicago Bears continue to add depth to several positions of need. Friday, the team announced that they had signed defensive tackle John Jenkins. Jenkins had previously been with the New Orleans Saints and Seattle Seahawks in 2016.

Jenkins was a third round pick by the Saints in 2013. Jenkins is a massive man that checks in anywhere from 350 to 370 pounds and is a load in the middle of a 3-4 at nose tackle. Jenkins never quite panned out with New Orleans and was only a rotational player.
