INDIANAPOLIS — The Bears need a safety to replace Eddie Jackson. Perhaps they’ll turn to someone who actually knows him.

Miami safety Kamren Kinchens has trained with Jackson in South Florida. He said Thursday he wants to “ask him all the details” and figure out the “loopholes to the NFL.” He described Jackson as humble and a standout player.

Jackson, a fourth-round pick seven years ago, earned a four-year, $58.
