The Chicago Bears have acquired three-time All-Pro defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons from the Tennessee Titans, in a trade that was announced Thursday .
As part of the deal, the Bears are also receiving a 2028 fifth-round draft pick and are sending Tennessee first-round picks in 2027 and 2028, plus a 2027 fourth-round pick.
"There are few people like Jeff Simmons. We are forever grateful for all he has given this team and this city," Titans owner Amy Adams Strunk said in a statement. "His formidable presence on the field was surpassed only by what he did off it. He gave Nashville more than football. The Give 'Em A Reason Foundation has changed lives in Middle Tennessee and in Mississippi, and I have no doubt it will continue to wherever he goes. Jeff — thank you. For how you played, how you led, and how you represented our team."
Simmons, 29, is joining a Bears defense that has allowed the eighth-fewest total yards (313.4 per game), third-fewest rushing yards (87.6) and ninth-fewest points (20.4), plus has recorded the fifth-most sacks (18) through seven weeks.
Through seven games this season, Simmons has four sacks, 38 total tackles and one forced fumble.
