The Bears signed 10 players to futures contracts on Monday. These 10 players will be on the 90-man roster heading into the 2024 season.

The Bears signed the following players: linebacker Micah Baskerville, tight end Stephen Carlson, offensive lineman Jerome Carvin, safety Adrian Colbert, offensive lineman Aviante Collins, defensive lineman Michael Dwumfour, defensive lineman Daniel Hardy, offensive lineman Roy Mbaeteka, offensive lineman Bill Murray and receiver/return specialist Nsimba Webster.

Futures contracts can be given to anyone who was not on the 53-man roster. They are usually at the league’s minimum salary and don’t count against the team’s salary cap until the new league year begins in March.

All of the players the Bears signed on Monday were on their practice squad during the 2023 season.
