Sources: Eagles LB T.J. Edwards plans to join Bears

Philadelphia Eagles free agent linebacker T.J. Edwards plans to sign with the Chicago Bears, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Monday.

Edwards, 26, signed with the Eagles as an undrafted free agent out of Wisconsin in 2019 and exceeded expectations year over year during his four seasons with the team.

His 159 tackles in 2022 were second most in franchise history (Byron Evans, 175) and ranked seventh in the NFL last season. He added 10 tackles for loss, two sacks and seven pass breakups while serving as the primary communicator for one of the top defenses in football.
