Bears To Host DT Jordan Elliott

The Chicago Bears are scheduled to host free agent defensive tackle Jordan Elliott for a workout next week, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz. The 28-year-old was recently released by the Tennessee Titans following an incident where he retrieved a firearm from his parked vehicle. The NFL's investigation into the situation remains ongoing, leaving Elliott facing the potential of league discipline.

A potential signing would reunite Elliott with defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons, whom Chicago acquired from Tennessee prior to the trade deadline. Titans head coach Robert Saleh reportedly advocates for Elliott receiving another opportunity in the league. With only $1.84MM in cap space remaining, any agreement reached between Chicago and Elliott would likely be a low-cost deal.
