Antrel Rolle could make plays in the Bears secondary

The Arizona Cardinals are expected to release free safety Antrel Rolle, who is owed a $4 million roster bonus next week and a whopping $12 mildo next season.  With Adrian Wilson already one of the highest paid safeties in the league, Rolle could be the odd man out as the Cards don’t want to spend too much on one position group.

The National Football Posts’s Matt Bowen thinks Rolle would be a great fit for the Bears.  I couldn’t agree more.  The defense has been on the decline since the Super Bowl and you could point to many reasons why, but I think it’s the lack of leadership and stability in the secondary.  The Bears have been playing musical safeties since Mike Brown started his annual trips to the Injured Reserve.

Check out Bowen’s take on the state of the safety position in Chicago and later how he thinks Rolle might fit in:
