The Chicago Bears have plenty of needs to address this offseason, most notably the defensive line. There are some intriguing names set to hit free agency next month. But it sounds like one top option will soon be off the market.
The Washington Commanders are expected to franchise tag Pro Bowl defensive tackle Da’Ron Payne, according to The Athletic. The deadline for teams to apply the franchise tag runs through March 7. The franchise tender for defensive tackles is worth $18.937 million.
