Bears Unlikely To Bring Back DL Israel Idonije

Dan Pompei of The Chicago Tribune believes the Bears are out of the hunt to re-sign free agent DL Israel Idonije.

Previous reports have indicated that the Bears had aย standing offer out toย Idonije, but their recent decision to sign DTย Sedrick Ellisย could be an indication that they’re no longer interested in bringingย Idonije back for another season.

As things stand right now, Chicago has onlyย $1.63 million in available cap space to work with, ย which also works against the idea of signingย Idonije.

Idonije, 32, has found very little interest on the openย market, but he didย visit with theย Titans back inย April. He’s coming off of a season in which he talliedย 7.5 sacks for the Bears defense.

We have him currently listed as the No. 4 player in our Best Available Free Agents list.
