Green (94) faced the Bears in 2021 when he played for the Seahawks.

Even as the Bears take chances on players who slipped through the first wave of free agency, they’re intent on staying young.

The team signed defensive end Rasheem Green on Thursday, and he will get a chance to compete for a starting job.

Green, 25, played 16 games for the Texans last season, was in for nearly half their defensive snaps and had 3 1/2 sacks — more than any Bears defensive lineman.

The Seahawks drafted him in the third round out of Southern Cal in 2018, and he broke out as a full-time starter in his fourth season.
