The Chicago Bears have an important offseason ahead where the current top priorities are finding the next general manager and head coach before the Bears can really delve into their offseason work.
After the salary cap decreased from $198.2 million in 2020 to $182.5 million in 2021 due to the COVID-19 impact, the cap is expected to rise to around $208.2 million in 2022.
Where things currently stand, the Bears are expected to have roughly $44 million in camp space, which is the 11th most in the NFL. But that’s also with just 26 players under contract for the 2022 season.
But there are some players with some pretty substantial cap hits heading into 2022, some of whom could be potential cap casualties.
Here’s a look at the 10 biggest cap hits on the books for the Bears in 2022:
