Report: Bears Meeting With The Agent For DT Jay Ratliff

Michael C. Wrightย of ESPN Chicago is “hearing” that the Bears will meet with free agentย DT Jay Ratliff‘s agent at the Combine this weekend.

  • Wright adds that the Bears alsoย interested in re-signing CB Kelvin Hayden.

Ratliff, 32, has been mentioned as a candidate to return to Chicago for a few months now, so this news doesn’t come as a much of a surprise.

The Bears signed him to theย veteran’s minimum back inย Week 8 of last season.ย Ratliff totaledย 9 tackles and 1.5 sacks for Chicago over the course of five games.

Pro Football Focus gave him a below average rating, although he has dealt with numerous injuries in recent years.

He could be a reasonably priced option for Chicago as they look to bolster their interior defensive line depth in the coming months.
