The team was open to trading him last preseason but he ended up sticking around and will compete for a role again in 2026.
McFadden, 26, was a three-year starter at Clemson and earned second and first-team All-ACC selections over his final two seasons. The Chargers drafted him in the fifth round of the 2023 NFL Draft.
He had finished the second year of a four-year, $4,152,140 rookie contract that included a $312,140 signing bonus when he was waived and claimed by the Bears. Chicago cut him coming out of the preseason in 2025 and re-signed him to the practice squad, and he bounced back and forth during the season.
In 2025, McFadden appeared in seven games for the Bears with no starts.
