There’s no doubt that the Chicago Bears made the right move letting Leonard Floyd go and replacing him with Robert Quinn. After logging seven sacks in his rookie year, Floyd failed to replicate that production on the box score. With the Bears needing pass rush help, signing Quinn was an excellent move.
That said, Quinn is already 29 years old, and he’s signed to a five-year deal. The Bears do have an out after the first two years but at a dead cap of $9.3M. And looking at how both Dwight Freeney and Everson Griffen‘s careers panned out after turning 30, the Bears will need to get the most from Quinn over the next couple of years.
