Dion Sims News
Former Chicago Bears tight end Dion Sims, who didn't play at all in 2019, announced on Twitter on Friday that he is retiring from the NFL. The Michigan State product played six seasons in the league with the Bears and Dolphins after being selected in the fourth round by Miami in 2013. Sims caught 91 passes for 888 yards and nine touchdowns in his career, playing his final two seasons with Chicago. The 29-year-old had a career-high 36 receptions for 284 yards and two touchdowns with the Dolphins in 2014 and also had a career-high four touchdowns in his final season in Miami in 2016.
The Chicago Bears are expected to release tight end Dion Sims, according to a source. He was due $6 million in 2019, so he'll become a salary cap casualty. The 28-year-old played in just 22 games in his two years in Chicago and caught only 17 passes for 189 yards and one touchdown over that span. Sims is mainly a blocking tight end and won't have a huge market for his services this offseason.
Chicago Bears tight end Dion Sims (concussion) has been in the concussion protocol the last two weeks. That surely doesn't bode well for Sims' availability for the start of the regular season. It's equally bad news with Adam Shaheen also on the shelf. The 27-year-old Sims is more of a blocking tight end and had only 15 catches for 180 yards and one score in his first year with Chicago in 2017. Trey Burton will be this team's main pass-catching tight end in 2018.
