Vikings Rivals Land Top Free Agent LB at a Bargain-Bin Price

If anyone thought the Chicago Bears were going to sit back and let themselves get another top draft pick in 2024, they are being proven wrong early on in the NFL’s legal tampering period. In the early minutes of the negotiations period, the Minnesota Vikings rivals land an agreement with top free agent linebacker TJ Edwards.

After trading the No. 1 overall pick to get their young QB Justin Fields a wide receiver in DJ Moore, this latest move helps shore up their defense in a major way. During 2022, the Bears struggled mightily on that side of the ball after parting ways with stars like Robert Quinn and Roquan Smith.
