The Chicago Bears had a big decision to make at inside linebacker. Danny Trevathan, Nick Kwiatkoski, and even Kevin Pierre-Louis entered free agency. The Bears had cap space, but not nearly enough to keep all three, especially after the two backups played well to end the season.
Before free agency started, the Bears re-signed Danny Trevathan to a three-year deal worth $21.75 million. The deal has incentives and options to be longer, but that is the base of the deal. When looking at what Nick Kwiatkoski got, it was nearly the same deal.
