It’s been a busy couple of days for Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Poles, who’s been making some tough moves on his roster. The latest is the release of defensive tackle Eddie Goldman, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
The Bears were trying to trade Goldman, according to Rapoport. But when they were unable to find a trade partner, they decided to part ways with the 28-year-old veteran, who’s expected to have a nice market in free agency.
Goldman was slated to have a $11.8 million cap hit in 2022, which was the fourth-highest on the team behind defensive end Robert Quinn, safety Eddie Jackson and offensive lineman Cody Whitehair.
