Last week, an excerpt from a new book caused a stir with details from Caleb Williams’ pre-draft process that noted his reluctance to play for the Bears.
After Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins signed their respective new contracts with the Bengals in March, both players credited quarterback Joe Burrow for helping the deals get done.
The Bears have made it official with offensive lineman Joe Thuney, announcing on Wednesday that the club has signed him to a two-year contract extension.
Early in the offseason, Joe Burrow made it clear that he wanted to see the Bengals reward Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Mike Gesicki, and Trey Hendrickson with new contracts.
Last week, Bengals defensive end Trey Hendrickson showed up in street clothes for Cincinnati’s voluntary workout and told reporters that things had become “personal” in his contract dispute.
