NFL free agency’s legal tampering period kicked off Monday, and it was a busy day around the league. The Chicago Bears were pretty quiet on the first day — at least when compared to teams like the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The Bears are expected to sign defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi to a three-year deal worth $40.5 million. While Ogunjobi wasn’t a big-name offensive player many were expecting Chicago to address on Day 1, it was an important signing.
But things are just getting started with free agency, which doesn’t technically begin until Wednesday at 3 p.m. CT with the start of the new league year. Although, the first day of legal tampering action was certainly educational.
Here are some quick Bears takeaways following the first day of free agency’s legal tampering period.
