5 receivers rumored to be available via trade for the Chicago Bears

The Chicago Bears could trade for Jarvis Landry, who is rumored to be on the block
Now, we’ve come to the part of the segment which would really raise some eyebrows in Chicago. If the Bears traded for Jarvis Landry, they would be taking on his salary of roughly $16 million in 2022. If the Browns cut him, they would only be out $1.5 million in dead cap.
Should Landry get dealt, you have to imagine that any team taking on his contract would immediately offer an extension and bit of a restructure. That way, Landry has security and a team like the Bears could get a bit more flexibility.
Landry has been one of the best possession receivers in the league for a few years now, and he is truly a guy that catches everything which comes his way. He is a tactical route runner who uses keen footwork to find himself open more often than not.
This would be a deal worth getting excited about. Landry is a former Pro Bowler and has caught 100 passes twice in his career, proving he can be counted on when targeted a bunch. Fields would get himself a phenomenal security blanket with Landry, especially because he is so good at getting open when the play breaks down.
