Al-Quadin Muhammad Fantasy

The Chicago Bears released defensive end Al-Quadin Muhammad on Friday, according to a source. The move comes after Muhammad had a tough season in his first year in Chicago. He played in 16 games and made nine starts, recording 29 tackles (15 solo), three QB hits, one sack and a forced fumble in 2022 while playing in a timeshare with Trevis Gibson. The 27-year-old had one year left on his contract, but he'll now get a head start on free agency this offseason. In his six NFL seasons, Muhammad has 157 tackles (103 solo), 23 tackles for loss, 33 QB hits, 12 sacks, four forced fumbles and one fumble recovery in 84 games played (34 starts).

Former Indianapolis Colts defensive end Al-Quadin Muhammad agreed to a two-year, $10 million deal with the Chicago Bears on Friday, according to a source. Muhammad will reunite with head coach Matt Eberflus. The 26-year-old pass-rusher spent his last two seasons in Indianapolis, where he had 51 solo tackles, nine tackles for loss, 19 QB hits, eight sacks and two forced fumbles in 33 games (17 starts). Muhammad hasn't missed a single game in the last three seasons. He's expected to compete for snaps at defensive end with Trevis Gipson in Chicago. Muhammad was a sixth-round pick by the New Orleans Saints in 2017 out of Miami, and he played just one season for the Saints before joining the Colts in 2018.
