Chicago Bears har officielt præsenteret tre nye spillere til holdets trup. Blandt dem er den erfarne linebacker Jon Rhattigan, som kommer med solid NFL-erfaring.
Rhattigan deltog som veteran i holdets rookie minicamp i weekenden og blev hurtigt en del af holdets planer. Sidste sæson opnåede han seks tackles i special teams for Las Vegas Raiders i løbet af 12 kampe. Tidligere har han også spillet en kamp for Pittsburgh Steelers og været en fast del af kickoff-gruppen for Carolina Panthers i 2024. Hans første tre sæsoner i NFL tilbragte han hos Seattle Seahawks, hvor han akkumulerede 50 tackles.
Udover Rhattigan har Bears også tilføjet wide receiver Scotty Miller og to andre spillere til truppen. Miller og de to nye linebackere, Kyron Hudson og Wayne Matthews, blev alle underskrevet som free agents uden draftet baggrund. Hudson og Matthews var blandt de spillere, der ikke blev draftet i april.
Som led i tilføjelserne har Bears placeret wide receiver Squirrel White på reserve/fortid-listen. White havde tidligere skrevet kontrakt med holdet som en uddraftet free agent inden minicampen.
