The Chicago Bears<\/a> made a splash on the first day of NFL’s free agency negotiation window, agreeing to terms with safety Coby Bryant on a three-year, $40 million deal with $25.75 million guaranteed.<\/p>\n

It was a big move for the Bears<\/a> with both starting safeties, Kevin Byard and Jaquan Brisker, hitting the open market and with plenty of holes to fill at the position. It’s also a big deal for Bryant, coming off his rookie contract, cashing in on a big season that ended in a Super Bowl championship with the Seattle Seahawks. Now, he’ll be called on to be a leader for the Bears defense next year.<\/p>\n

Following the agreement of his deal being reported by several NFL insiders, Bryant took to social media and had quite the hilarious reaction to his lucrative contract.<\/p>\n

The big contract will come with even bigger expectations for Bryant, and Chicago still has a few more moves to make to shore up their secondary ahead of the 2026 season. The Bears still have Jaquan Brisker and Kevin Byard as pending free agents, but the move to acquire Bryant helped get them out in front of losing either one, or both, to the free agency market this offseason.<\/p>\n
