Bears sign veteran edge rusher Marcus Davenport, defensive back Deantre Prince

The Chicago Bears have added experienced defensive talent by signing veteran defensive end Marcus Davenport and defensive back Deantre Prince. Davenport, 29, played for Detroit in the past two seasons but was restricted to 10 games due to chest and triceps injuries. He also played for Minnesota in 2023 after starting his career in New Orleans.

Davenport has amassed a total of 25 sacks in 77 career games. Prince joined the Bears in his first year of professional football. Additionally, the team waived running back Coleman Bennett and tight end Nikola Kalinic, who suffered a knee injury during a preseason game.
