The Chicago Bears kicked off NFL free agency in agreeing to terms with linebacker T.J. Edwards on a three-year deal worth $19.5 million.
Edwards, a homegrown product from Lake Villa, is an absolute steal for the Bears, who get him for $6.5 million per year. He was one of the top linebackers on the free agent market, and he fills a huge need at linebacker for Matt Eberflus’ defense, where he’s likely to serve as the MIKE linebacker.
