The Bears continued to add depth via free agency on Tuesday.

Ryan Poles sought out veteran TE Gerald Everett to complement Cole Kmet. Everett signed a 2-year deal worth $12 million, per reports.

Entering his 8th season in 2024, Everett has played 4 seasons with the Rams, 2 years with the Chargers and 1 season with the Seahawks. He has 20 career touchdowns in 107 games.

The Bears also added depth to their secondary by way of safety Jonathan Owens.

An undrafted free agent out of Missouri Western, Owens spent the first 4 seasons of his career in Houston before signing with Green Bay in 2023. Owens started 11 of the Packers’ 17 regular season games last season, as well as both postseason games.

Owens is married to Olympic Gold Medalist Simone Biles, who was happy to see her husband sign in Chicago.
