Jimmy Graham’s place on the 2021 Chicago Bears

I’m just as surprised as most of you guys that 34-year old Jimmy Graham is still on the Chicago Bears roster, but here we are in mid May and it looks like he’s here to stay.

When Bears general manager Ryan Pace inked him last year to a two-year, $16 million deal, with $9 million guaranteed, we all assumed he’d only see the first year of that contract. Cutting him before the 2021 season would save the Bears $7 million in cap space, while keeping him around is going to eat up $10 million of their cap.
