USAT: Bears Wire

The Chicago Bears found a new defensive end in Al-Quadin Muhammad, who signed a two-year deal worth $10 million. Muhammad fills a need at edge rusher following the Khalil Mack trade. - Muhammad, a sixth-round pick by the Saints in 2017, is coming off a breakout season with the Indianapolis Colts, where he set career highs in tackles (48), sacks (6) and QB hits (13) with 17 starts. - Despite Mack’s departure, the Bears still have some playmakers coming off the edge, starting with Robert Quinn and Trevis Gipson. Muhammad joins that group, where he comes into a situation with his former Colts defensive coordinator and Bears head coach Matt Eberflus. - We spoke to Kevin Hickey of Colts Wire, who gave us the rundown on what we can expect from the Bears’ new defensive end and why he’s a good fit for Chicago.
