In a significant move, the Chicago Bears have traded for center Garrett Bradbury from the New England Patriots. This acquisition comes as a response to the retirement of Pro Bowler Drew Dalman, as the Bears aim to fill a critical void in their offensive line. The Patriots will receive a fifth-round draft pick in 2027 as part of the deal. This trade not only helps the Bears bolster their roster ahead of the upcoming season but also allows the Patriots to clear some salary cap space and prioritize other roster needs.
