The Chicago Bears Keep/Trade or Release: Leonard Floyd

The Chicago Bears drafted outside linebacker Leonard Floyd 9th in the first round of the 2016 NFL draft. After some health problems earlier on in his career, Floyd stayed healthy and had somewhat of a positive impact on defense. However, his impact was not as strong as the team and the fans would have hoped. The Bears picked up his fifth-year option and have to decide on him. They could be stuck with him.

Or will they be?

Going into next season, Floyd’s cap number is going to be $13,222,000. That’s a lot of money for one player.
