Free-agent receiver Kenny Golladay met with Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Pace and head coach Matt Nagy on Wednesday, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.

Golladay is slated to meet with the New York Giants on Thursday night, Schefter adds. Additionally, the Cincinnati Bengals have reportedly offered him a contract.

The 27-year-old is the top remaining option in a slow-to-develop receiver market. Golladay's recorded two 1,000-plus yard campaigns and 3,068 receiving yards total since entering the league in 2017.

However, a hip injury derailed Golladay's 2020 campaign, limiting him to five games and just two touchdowns.

The Bears' top receiver is Allen Robinson, whose future in Chicago remains unclear. Robinson received the franchise tag but is reportedly in no rush to sign the tender, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

Chicago is looking to improve an offense that finished 22nd in scoring and 26th in yardage last season. The Bears have already made a change at quarterback, signing Andy Dalton while letting Mitchell Trubisky walk.
