4 Tennessee Titans cut candidates who could fit Chicago Bears

The Chicago Bears are evaluating free agents and their fits on the roster before the start of NFL free agency in a couple of weeks. Another thing they will need to watch are cut candidates. There are plenty of players who will be released as their salary is not guaranteed and is not worth the price. Are there are any players on the Tennessee Titans that the Chicago Bears should be watching to find more free agents looming?

4. Taylor Lewan

The Tennessee Titans have had a long relationship with their left tackle Taylor Lewan. However, it could be nearing the end as he enters his age 31 season. Lewan tore his ACL in 2020. He came back, and only missed four games in 2021 while recovering.

Still, his play did fall back a bit, and at age 31, there are questions of what his peak will be moving forward. On top of that, the Titans could save $12.9M by moving on from him. They also drafted Dillon Radunz last year, who may be their next left tackle.

It is one thing to wonder what his play will be, it is another to debate whether it is worth that savings. On the Chicago Bears side, if he were released, he would almost assuredly see a market, but with offers a bit less than what he was getting in his prime. This could put Chicago in the market.

Lewan is a career left tackle. Teven Jenkins may be holding that spot down, but he is more natural at right tackle, and the switch would be easy. Many projected Larry Borom to move to guard in the long term, so if he stepped into right guard, the need to re-sign James Daniels is gone.

Daniels is roughly six years younger, and the price tags may not be too different, but the question is would you rather invest money in a left tackle who is established, but aging, or a young guard, who doesn’t”t have a true home position and has not quite solidified himself yet?
