The Chicago Bears have plenty of needs to address this offseason. Although, outside of the 2020 NFL Draft, it’s going to be difficult given their limited salary cap space. They currently have a little over $6 million in cap space for 2020, according to Over The Cap.

Although that’s never stopped general manager Ryan Pace before. Pace has already his work on the salary cap by restructuring cornerback Kyle Fuller’s contract to free up cap space.

But aside from that, there are players the Bears could part ways with this offseason to free up a good chunk of salary cap space, which would allow Pace to extend some players in-house or bring in some new faces through free agency.

Here are four players that could be on the chopping block this offseason:

1. RG Kyle Long

Technically Kyle Long has already announced his hiatus/retirement from the NFL, which would free up the $8.1 million in salary cap space the Bears were set to free up by releasing the veteran right guard.

Long has struggled with injuries throughout his season, especially over the last four seasons where he’s finished each of those years on injured reserve. The Bears have are likely to turn to the NFL Draft for his replacement or look in-house with rookie offensive lineman Alex Bars.
