Chicago Bears agree to 2-year contract with veteran safety Kevin Byard
The Chicago Bears have added Kevin Byard to their secondary, agreeing to a two-year contract with the veteran safetyMARCH 10 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Finds work in Chicago Byard and the Bears agreed Sunday on a two-year, $15 million contract, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact In Chicago, Byard should settle in as the team's starting free safety as a replacement for Eddie Jackson, whom the Bears released in February. Between stops with the Titans and Eagles last season, Byard recorded a career-high 122 tackles in 16 games, but the historically ball-hawking defensive back recorded just two turnovers (one interception, one fumble recovery). Heading into his age-31 season in 2024, Byard's best years are most likely behind him, but his addition should still help bolster a Bears secondary that was often leaky in 2023.

Leading tackler vs. Bills Byard recorded 13 tackles (nine solo) in Sunday's 37-34 overtime win versus Buffalo.
Impact Byard has tallied seven-plus total tackles in all of his last six games, but his performance in Week 12 was good enough for a season-high in that category. He's on pace for a career year and projects as a great IDP play in Week 13 when Philadelphia hosts the run-heavy 49ers.

Will suit up Sunday Byard is active for Sunday's Week 8 contest against Washington.
Impact Byard joined Philadelphia via a trade with Tennessee this past Monday, and he's been able to acquaint himself with the Eagles' playbook well enough to suit up six days later. The veteran safety should immediately slot into a starting role opposite Reed Blankenship in his Philadelphia debut. Byard was performing well with the Titans prior to the trade, tallying 47 tackles (30 solo) over six contests.
