The Chicago Bears reportedly signed cornerback Kyle Fuller to a four-year, $56-million contract Friday, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Chicago matched an offer sheet presented to Fuller by the Green Bay Packers. The Bears had five days to match or better the Packers' offer.
Fuller is reportedly guaranteed $18 million.
The Bears previously placed the transition tag on Fuller, which would've kept him on a one-year deal worth $12.9 million.
Fuller recorded 69 tackles, 22 pass deflections, and two interceptions in 16 games with the Bears during the 2017 season.
