Bears Extend Wright Record OL Contract

The Chicago Bears have extended offensive tackle Darnel Wright to a four-year, $116 million contract with $93 million guaranteed, making him the highest-paid right tackle in NFL history. The deal secures the 2025 second-team All-Pro as a cornerstone of the team's rebuild under general manager Ryan Poles, who selected Wright with his first draft pick in 2022. Wright's 81.4 Pro Football Focus grade and elite 85.6 run-blocking rating were instrumental in the Bears ranking third in the NFL in rushing during the 2025 season. cricket-info.homes
