Bears Land Joe Tryon-Shoyinka in Pick Swap as Jermaine Johnson Price Proves Too High

The move reflects a pivot from a reported Jets demand of a second-round pick for Jermaine Johnson.

Overview

  • Chicago acquired Joe Tryon-Shoyinka from the Browns in a 2026 pick swap, sending a sixth-rounder and receiving the edge rusher plus a seventh-rounder.
  • NFL insider Jordan Schultz reported the Bears explored trading for Jets pass rusher Jermaine Johnson II, who was priced at a second-round pick.
  • To open a roster spot, the Bears placed defensive end Dayo Odeyingbo on injured reserve with a torn Achilles.
  • The updated defensive end group features Montez Sweat, Austin Booker, Daniel Hardy, Dominique Robinson, and Tryon-Shoyinka.
  • Tryon-Shoyinka logged nine tackles in eight games this season for Cleveland and has 15 career sacks, positioning him as immediate depth with upside.
