Poles added that he had great communication throughout with head coach Ben Johnson and defensive coordinator Dennis Allen in making the best possible move for the team, now and for the future. Being able to hold on to high draft picks was a valued priority for the team and the Bears were able to do that while coming away with a 26-year-old pass rusher with some upside.

Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Poles believes he did the best he could to improve the team's pass rush without throwing away its future.

Chicago Bears General Manager Ryan Poles and his wife, Katie, listed their Lincolnshire home for $2.95 million.

The house currently is listed in an agents-only private network. Private showings are scheduled to start on Nov. 10.

Poles and his wife, Katie, who bought the five-bedroom house in 2023, are asking about 42% more than they paid two and a half years ago.

Analysis: The lack of an edge rusher who can step right in for injured Dayo Odeyingbo means the Bears missed on yet another trade opportunity.

The Chicago Bears can celebrate another heart-stopping win, but Ben Johnson acknowledges they need more of a “killer mindset.”
