Bears worked out 5 new players!

Brad Biggs reported that Bears worked out 5 players today, most notably CB Vernon Hargreaves, drafted 11th overall by the Buccaneers in 2016.

You might remember him with the #Bengals. He got a 15-yard penalty in Super Bowl LVI for running onto the field. He was inactive for the game.

Also in the tryout:

DBs Davontae Harris (Illinois State) and Isaiah Johnson
DT Trevon Coley
DE Josh Mauro
CB Isaiah Johnson


Hargreaves is clearly the biggest name on the list. He was a former first-round pick out of the University of Florida, where he performed as one of the best defensive players in the country. He ended up being the 11th overall pick to Tampa Bay back in 2016.

From 2016-2019, Hargreaves played and started for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but once they cleaned house and made way for Tom Brady and company, the former first-rounder was a part of that. For the next two and a half seasons, he has was as a starter for the Texans. He was with the Bengals in 2021.
