Bears Rumors: Starting DT Eddie Goldman Released After Failed Trade Attempts

The Chicago Bears are set to release defensive tackle Eddie Goldman, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported Friday.

According to Brad Spielberger of Pro Football Focus, cutting Goldman will save the Bears $6.7 million against the salary cap, giving them up to $35 million in cap space.

Rapoport noted that despite the Bears trying to trade Goldman and being unable to find a taker, the 28-year-old veteran is expected to have a "nice market" in free agency.
