LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) — The Chicago Bears released linebacker
Tremaine Edmunds on Friday after granting him permission last
week to seek a trade.
The 27-year-old Edmunds was entering the final season of a
four-year, $72 million contract he signed in 2023. The Bears
saved $15 million in cap space by letting him go before the
start of the league year next week.
Edmunds helped the Bears go from worst to first in the NFC
North. He led the team with 112 tackles and had four
interceptions despite missing four games with a groin injury.
Chicago went 11-6 and won its first division title since 2018.
The Bears advanced in the playoffs for the first time in 15
years, rallying to beat Green Bay in a wild-card thriller before
losing to the Los Angeles Rams in overtime in the divisional
round.
