The Chicago Bears added a number of defensive backs this offseason, in hopes to strengthen what has been a weak unit. The biggest deficiency from the secondary has been in getting turnovers. Now to be fair, interceptions have something to do with the pressure the front seven can bring, but Chicago’s back end hasn’t done much the last two years. Playmakers are needed badly.
They added a few established veteran free agents, but if they get lucky with an unheralded signing, that would help too.
The Bears signed cornerback Rashaad Reynolds to their practice squad late last season, then they gave him a reserve/futures contract in January.
