LAKE FOREST, Ill. – The Chicago Bears signed tight end Tony Moeaki and defensive lineman Marquis Jackson and waived defensive lineman Kenton Adeyemi and linebacker Don Cherry, the team announced on Thursday.
Moeaki, 29, joins the Bears after he attended veteran minicamp on a tryout basis.
Originally a third-round pick of the Chiefs in 2010, Moeki had a pair of productive seasons in Kansas City, combining for 80 receptions for 1,009 yards and four touchdowns in 2010 and 2012.
Moeaki played in 11 games for Atlanta in 2015, but hauled in just three passes for 58 yards and one touchdown.
