Defensive End
- Starters: Akiem Hicks, Bilal Nichols
- Back-ups: Roy Robertson-Harris, Brent Urban
- Reserves: Abdullah Anderson, Trevon McSwain, Lacale London
Nothing is changing when it comes to the Bears defensive ends, which is exactly what Chicago needs for this dominant defense. The Bears return some key veterans on the defensive line in Akiem Hicks, Bilal Nichols and Roy Robertson-Harris, who anchor arguably the deepest positional group on the roster. They also have some key reserves in Brent Urban and Abdullah Anderson, along with Trevon McSwain and Lacale London.
Nose Tackle
- Starter: Eddie Goldman
- Back-up: John Jenkins
- Reserve: Lee Autry
Eddie Goldman remains one of the most underrated defensive players in the NFL — and on the Bears — and he returns as starting nose tackle in 2020. While Nick Williams left in free agency, the Bears brought back John Jenkins, who was with the team in 2017.
