Chicago Bears quickly match deal to keep CB Kyle Fuller

Well, that didn't take long.

Hours after it was reported that the Green Bay Packers had signed Bears cornerback Kyle Fuller to an offer sheet, the Bears quickly matched it, keeping him in the fold. The terms of the deal: four years, $56 million (with $18 million guaranteed).

After the Bears had placed the seldom-used transition tag on Fuller – instead of the more widely used franchise tag – it opened the door for another team to sign him to a long-term contract, with the Bears given five days to match.

They didn't even take five hours.
