New Details Emerge On Bears Plan To Replace Drew Dalman

The Chicago Bears thought they had finally solved center.

Now they’re back to work.

The official retirement announcement came on Tuesday, confirming that Drew Dalman is stepping away from football at just 27 years old. However, new details reveal this decision wasn’t a surprise inside Halas Hall.

Dalman informed the Bears of his retirement ahead of the open negotiation period on Monday, giving the front office clarity before the market officially opened.

That timing matters.
