T.J. Edwards - Healthy again Edwards (undisclosed) is healthy once again, Josh Schrock of NBC Sports reports.

DJ Moore - Inks extension Moore and the Bears have come to terms on a four-year, $110 million extension that includes $82.5 million guaranteed, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Impact After spending his first five seasons in Carolina, Moore produced career highs across the board with the Bears in 2023, including 1,364 yards and eight touchdowns on 96 receptions. The Chicago offense will look drastically different this year, as Keenan Allen and Rome Odunze join the receiving room and 2024 first overall pick Caleb Williams takes over as the starting QB. Chicago also added tight end Gerald Everett and running back D'Andre Swift in the offseason, so it seems unlikely that Moore will be able to match his 28.8 percent target share from last year, regardless of his salary.

Demetric Felton - Headed to Windy City The Bears signed Felton to a contract Sunday, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Felton spent 2023 as a member of the Bengals' practice squad after failing to make the team's 53-man roster at the end of training camp. After being selected by the Browns in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft, Felton played in 24 regular-season games for Cleveland over the next two seasons. He has accrued just 20 rushing yards and 189 receiving yards in his NFL career, and he will compete with Travis Homer and Ian Wheeler for the fourth spot on the Bears' running back depth chart.

Injuries were an issue for the offensive lineman last season, as he played in only 11 games due to separate ankle and foot issues. The severity of his current issue isn't yet certain, but if he's able to recover relatively quickly, Davis is expected to open the regular season as Chicago's starting right guard.
