Jordan Schultz reports that the Chicago Bears have signed defensive lineman Daniel Hardy to a two-year contract worth up to $6 million. Hardy, 27, was a seventh-round pick by the Rams in 2022 and previously signed a four-year deal with them before being waived at the start of the 2023 season. He joined the Bears’ practice squad and later appeared in all 17 games for Chicago in 2025, recording 22 tackles. This contract comes as he was set to become an unrestricted free agent soon.
