The Bears’ efforts to upgrade their roster with a relatively meager amount of cap space won’t be hamstrung by right tackle Bobby Massie’s contract extension, as it turns out.
The Chicago Tribune’s Brad Biggs reported the details of Massie’s contract on Monday, which you can find here. For 2019, though, the important detail is this: Massie’s cap hit will only be $3.8 million, which is low for a solid veteran.
It’ll rise in 2020, when the Bears will have some players hitting free agency and/or will have the option to save cap space by releasing others.
