Overview
- NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported Monday that Odeyingbo tore his Achilles during Sunday’s win over the Bengals and will miss the rest of 2025.
- The defensive end joined Chicago in March on a three-year, $48 million deal after four seasons with the Colts.
- He started all eight games this season and logged heavy snaps but produced one sack with 21 tackles, one pass deflection and four quarterback hits.
- Chicago’s depth is already thin with rookie Shemar Turner out for the year, leaving Montez Sweat, Austin Booker, Dominique Robinson and Daniel Hardy as the primary options.
- Team reporters note the Bears could seek another edge rusher before the deadline, with internal replacements expected to see expanded roles in the meantime.
