Chicago Bears: 3 Players to sign before Week 1 matchup vs. Rams

2. Quinton Dunbar could be a valuable addition to the Chicago Bears secondary

Chicago made a rather controversial decision to release Kyle Fuller in the offseason, leaving a large hole in the secondary.

Though Kindle Vildor is scheduled to slot right into the starting spot, the fear factor doesn’t exist, and we can be assured that Stafford will attack that side of the field often. As such, the Bears need help in that position; enter Quinton Dunbar.

As most will recall, Dunbar was placed on the Commissioner’s exempt list following his involvement in an alleged robbery attempt, where charges against him were later dropped. While he can’t permanently remove that from his resume, he can still play football and does have a resume that considers a look.

Dunbar has 10 interceptions over his career and 180 tackles. This doesn’t automatically vault him into a starting job, but it provides depth for a position that the Bears need help at. While rookie Thomas Graham Jr shows promise and may contend for a starting job down the road given his instincts, the Bears need help right now, and Dunbar can provide it.
