Bears’ projected defensive depth chart before minicamp

Ahead of mandatory minicamp next week, we’re projecting what the Bears’ defensive (and special teams) depth chart looks like.

The Chicago Bears are gearing up for the start of mandatory minicamp, which runs June 13-15.

Chicago’s defense is looking to rebound following a brutal 2022 season, where they struggled to get after the quarterback and stop the run. We’ll see if GM Ryan Poles’ offseason additions can help remedy that.

Bears defensive coordinator Alan Williams made it clear that it’s not about where players are running right now during voluntary workouts: “It’s a rep chart, not a depth chart.”

Still, we’re projecting what the Bears’ defensive (and special teams) depth chart might look like ahead of minicamp, where there are still plenty of position battles to play out.
