Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Poles has revealed the team's trade plans in the wake of a decision involving Jeffery Simmons, according to a report published Friday. Poles, who has led the Bears' front office since 2022, addressed the organization's approach to potential roster moves during a media availability.
The announcement comes as Chicago continues to evaluate its roster construction ahead of key league deadlines. Simmons, a defensive tackle for the Tennessee Titans, has been the subject of trade speculation in recent weeks. The Bears and Titans last met on September 8, 2024, at Soldier Field, where Poles was photographed observing pregame warmups.
Specific details regarding the Simmons decision and the exact nature of Chicago's trade intentions were not disclosed in the initial report. The Bears' front office typically maintains discretion regarding active negotiations, particularly when involving players under contract with other clubs.
