Bears offseason: Breaking down contract statuses at every position for 2022

It’s a new era for the Chicago Bears following the hirings of new general manager Ryan Poles and head coach Matt Eberflus, and there’s a busy offseason ahead.

Poles will have plenty of work to do with this roster with an estimated $30 million in available cap space. There are certainly some potential contract extensions and cap casualties heading into free agency.

With the offseason in full swing, we decided to take a look at the current contract status at every position.

For note: Those listed that still have time left on their contracts could be released or traded during the offseason, and some could sign extensions.

This list also includes players entering free agency.

Here’s a key:

  • UFA – Unrestricted free agent
  • RFA – Restricted free agent
  • ERFA – Exclusive Rights Free Agent
  • RF – Reserve/future contract
  • Ages are as of Sept. 1, 2022
