With Teven Jenkins battling back tightness and the lack of offensive tackle depth the Chicago Bears have after letting Charles Leno, Jr. go this offseason, did the Bears make a mistake in not letting Jimmy Graham go?

How does Jimmy Graham relate to the Chicago Bears Teven Jenkins dilemma?

According to Spotrac, the Chicago Bears had a “potential out” of Jimmy Graham’s contract going into 2021, which would have only resulted in a $3 million dollar cap hit, rather than the $9 million dollar cap hit they would have paid if they cut him in 2020.
