The Chicago Bears have not had the same two starting safeties on the roster since 2018 when Adrian Amos played his final season and the Bears saw the emergence of Eddie Jackson as a top safety in the NFL. This is all changing in 2021 as the Chicago Bears have brought back safety Tashaun Gipson on a one-year deal.

Per source, safety Tashaun Gipson has agreed to terms on a one-year deal to return to the Chicago Bears.
