The Packers recently released tight end Jimmy Graham to save $8 million in salary cap space, but there’s a chance that he could land in Chicago. Considering Graham is 34 years old and didn’t necessarily play up to his contract in Green Bay, the Bears could land him for a cheaper price than his $11 million salary. In his two seasons with the Packers, Graham had 93 catches for 1,083 yards and five touchdowns.

The Bears are expected to also target tight end in the NFL Draft, so they could bring in a veteran like Graham one a one-year prove-it deal while also grooming a young tight end, in addition to some other options already on the roster in Demeterius Harris, Jesper Horsted and J.P. Holtz.
