Staying in Chicago
The Bears re-signed Williams on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Chicago tendered Williams in early March, and the 26-year-old will be back for a second year with the organization next year. Williams worked in a rotational role last season, posting 23 tackles (17 solo), including 3.0 sacks, over 17 games after not logging any time in the NFL in 2023. He'll likely have a similar role next season, though it's worth noting that Williams logged at least 46 percent of Chicago's defensive snaps in each of the team's final five games, so he could see the field relatively often if he performs well.

Tendered by Chicago
The Bears placed a right to refusal tender on Williams on Saturday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
The move allows Chicago to match any contract offer that Williams receives from another team. He was traded by the Colts to the Bears in August and appeared in all 17 regular-season games in 2024, posting 23 tackles (17 solo), including 3.0 sacks, over that span.

Rotational role in 2024
Williams posted three tackles in the Bears' 24-22 win over the Packers on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Williams backed up Gervon Dexter at defensive tackle and played 35 percent of the snaps in 2024. After playing minimal snaps during his first two seasons with the Colts, Williams ended the campaign with 23 stops and 3.0 sacks. He'll be a restricted free agent this offseason.

ANALYSIS
Chicago flipped a sixth-round pick to Cleveland for Williams and a seventh rounder, per Mayer. The defensive tackle will try to stick with the Bears through cutdown day Tuesday. Williams entered the league as an undrafted free agent with the Colts in 2020 and appeared in 13 games between 2021 and '22.
