The Chicago Bears have 30 players set to become free agents next month, and general manager Ryan Pace has already started the process of re-signing some of those in-house names.
Chicago is re-signing running back Ryan Nall, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. Nall was set to become a restricted free agent at the start of the new league year.

In his second year with the Bears, Nall recorded three rushes for zero yards and eight receptions for 67 yards and a touchdown.
While Nall was the team’s third running back, he was used sparingly with David Montgomery and Cordarrelle Patterson getting a bulk of the carries. And when Nall did see the field, it was either in blocking situations or out of the backfield as a receiver.
Nall rejoins a running backs room that features David Montgomery, Tarik Cohen, and Artavis Pierce with new running backs coach Michael Pitre.
