Ngakoue had 9.5 sacks for the Colts last season, and 65 over his seven-year NFL career.
After months of speculation about how they might improve their pass rush, general manager Ryan Poles is signing veteran edge rusher Yannick Ngakoue to a one-year, $10.5 million contract, according to multiple reports from ESPN and the NFL Network.
The Bears totaled a league-worst 20 sacks as a team in 2022. By sack rate, they ranked 31st in the league in sacks per pass attempt. For an organization that prides itself on defense and on sacking the quarterback, it was unequivocally a low point in franchise history. "We can't fix everything at a high level in one swoop," Poles said on the night the draft concluded."So we are aware of our strengths and weaknesses and we're going to be opportunistic. That's why we've done what we've done and we still have flexibility to do what we need to do to improve in different areas."
by signing up you agree to our terms of service Poles has been selective with his free agents. Reports indicated earlier in the offseason that Ngakoue was holding out for a multi-year contract, but that does not appear to be what the Bears are offering.
