This is correct. Neither Lynch nor DHC is eligible for PUP.

Re: Bears to sign Roquan Smith to 4yr $18M gauranteed deal

At least he didn't go as long as Ben$on... What I don't understand is the dollar amount was higher than what I read a player drafted in his slot should get. He got 18 mil and in the article I read earlier he should've been in the ballpark of 15 mil. I thought the rookies had pre set dollar amounts ...

Re: Roquan Smith Holdout

@AaronLemingNFL Judging by the reports that are out there, it’s looking like there’s a decent chance that Roquan Smith may not be signed before the end of preseason. Even so much, that this could actually drag close to week 1 if not longer. Unreal, man. #Bears @AaronLemingNFL . Yep, Leming has had ...

Re: Preseason Week 1: Bears "lose" to Bengals 30-27

Depth at CB is very concerning. Also, absolutely no edge pressure besides Floyd. I agree with the lack of Edge... there is no excuse for ignoring the second most important position on the team in both the draft and FA last year, then follow it up this year with just a few touch-ups at the position....

Plus this is likely the biggest contract Roquan will ever sign. For many rookies there isn't a 2nd big contract.... I sure hope not. Because if it was, it would mean he was a complete bust. Hopefully the most likely scenario is that his 2nd contract is exponentially larger, as any top 10 pick that ...

Re: Hall of Fame Game: Bears "lose" 17-16 to Ravens

Perhaps the most interesting thing for me was what I didn't see in the game. On the one day at camp, I saw the Bears--particularly in the red zone--line up with 3 TEs many times. Often in the red zone, it was zero TEs. We rarely saw 2 TEs at all, much less 3. And I fairly commonly saw an interestin...

(Shaheen, Braunecker, D. Brown, and Sims).. the Bears opened in the extremely rare 20 personnel grouping. ...
