8. S Deon Bush
Following Ha Ha Clinton-Dix’s departure in free agency, the Bears re-signed veteran safety Deon Bush to a one-year deal, where it was assumed he was the presumptive starter opposite safety Eddie Jackson. But Chicago also signed a top free agent in safety Tashaun Gipson to a one-year deal, which brought immediate competition to the position.
With Jackson moving back to free safety, there’s a starting strong safety spot up for grabs between Bush and Gipson, where Gipson should be seen as the favorite to win the job given his experience. If Bush is going to have a chance, he’s going to need a strong training camp performance.
