TJ Edwards' Battle to Prove Himself

TJ Edwards, Chicago Bears linebacker, is racing against time to prove he’s still elite after a brutal playoff injury fractured his fibula and ankle. Signed to an extension last spring, his performance already dipped last season, and now, with the team stocked with Devin Bush, DMarco Jackson, and rookie Keyshawn Elliott, Edwards faces a steep climb back to starting form. If he doesn’t return strong this summer, he could slide down the depth chart—or worse, risk losing his job and his $11M salary. Turning 30 in August, Edwards has one season to show he’s worth the money and his roster spot—or risk being cut before his contract expires in 2026.
