The Bears are among teams engaged with the Chiefs on trade discussions surrounding four-time Super Bowl champion Joe Thuney, per @diannarussini.bsky.social.

He's an all-pro guard, why would you not want that?? He's an average LT at best, but he's one of the best guards in the game. He only played LT because the Chiefs LTs sucked major ass
This was before I saw the trade comp. I didn't realize the trading team could eat salary in the NFL. I also assumed it was a pick this year. Just thought adding $26M at the same position as the guy you traded for yesterday was a bad move. But on board with it now that the deals are coming.
Whoa. They'd rather keep the young guy (Trey Smith) but can't tie up that much in the IOL. Hope this means a chance for improvement at LT through the draft and free agency. And Thuney just won the team MVP award.
I don't like it, but I get it. Our backup LG played fine, and idk if you've seen our cap situation post-Trey Smith tag but we're deep in the hole. Gotta make room somewhere. We've currently got the most expensive OL in the NFL and it was the main reason we sucked ass in the Super Bowl

Joe Thuney will be dealt Chicago in exchange for a 2026 fourth-round pick.
And we still eat some of his cap hit.
