Bears GM Ryan Poles is in his third year.

Bears fans hoping they’d make a splash at the start of league year didn’t get their prayers answered Wednesday. But they did get an Amen.

Amen Ogbongbemiga, the linebacker who played special teams for the Chargers the last three years, signed a one-year deal worth $2.1 million, a source confirmed Wednesday. Quarterback Brett Rypien, who played for three teams last season, agreed to terms on a one-year deal. So did Matt Pryor, a backup offensive lineman who played 42 snaps for the 49ers last year.
