The NFL’s franchise tag deadline is this afternoon at 3 p.m. CT, and there have already been a number of players tagged, including Chiefs tackle Orlando Brown, Bengals safety Jessie Bates and Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki.
While there are still a few expected to be tagged in the coming hours, including Green Bay’s Davante Adams and Tampa Bay’s Chris Godwin, Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson is not expected to be among them.
With a new regime in place with general manager Ryan Poles and head coach Matt Eberflus, there was slim hope that perhaps Robinson and the Bears could come to terms after a rocky couple of years.
