The Kansas City Chiefs cut Jaye Howard loose last week before the 2017 NFL Draft citing a “failed physical” designation, but that’s not stopping him from finding offers from other teams on the open market. The Chicago Bears have made an official offer to the defensive tackle after making his first free agent visit, but Howard reportedly wants to keep shopping in hopes of finding a better offer (or forcing the Bears to go higher).
Former Chiefs DL Jaye Howard passed physical in Chicago, received offer but left without deal, per source. Plans other visits, Chi an option

On paper, Howard’s addition to the Bears makes a lot of sense.
