The Chicago Bears have given linebacker Tremaine Edmunds permission to seek a trade, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
Edmunds became a two-time Pro Bowler with the Buffalo Bills, who drafted him 16th overall out of Virginia Tech in 2018. He’s spent the past three seasons with the Bears.

Even though Edmunds missed four games during the 2025 campaign with a groin injury that he sustained late in a Week 11 win over the Minnesota Vikings, he still finished the regular season with a team-leading 112 total tackles. He’s gone over the century mark in that department in each of his eight NFL seasons.
The Bears have Edmunds under contract for the 2026 season at $15 million, according to The Chicago Tribune’s Brad Biggs.
He will turn 28 in May.
