Bears salary cap: 14 players responsible for $56.8M in dead money

Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Poles has been overhauling the roster this offseason, which includes getting some expensive contracts off the books.

Unfortunately, those moves resulted in taking some big dead cap hits for the 2022 season, to join some moves made by former GM Ryan Pace.

According to Over The Cap, the Bears have $56.8 million in dead money for the 2022 season, which is the second-most in the NFL. That’s behind only the Atlanta Falcons, who have $63.21 million in dead cap.

Here is a look at the 14 players who are responsible for the team’s dead money. (All figures are from Over The Cap).
