Ahead of the Chicago Bears making the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft on Thursday, the organization reportedly locked in assistant general manager Ian Cunningham with a new deal.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Wednesday that the Bears signed Cunningham to a contract extension, keeping him in place alongside GM Ryan Poles.
While the new contract gives Cunningham security, it doesn't guarantee he will remain in Chicago for long, as Schefter noted that he is expected to be one of the top general manager candidates across the league during the next hiring cycle.
