Chicago Bears sign 4th round pick Eddie Jackson

The Chicago Bears have signed fourth round draft pick, safety Eddie Jackson. The only two draft picks yet to be signed are first rounder Mitchell Trubisky (QB), and second rounder Adam Shaheen (TE).

The Bears traded up in the 2017 NFL Draft to take Jackson, the only defensive player they ended up grabbing in the draft. They sent their 6th round pick this year, which was the 197th overall, and their 117th overall pick (in the 4th round) to move up five spots for the chance to take the Alabama safety.

He just went through the rookie minicamp over the weekend, and while he wasn’t able to go 100%, he was out there learning the defense.
