For the Packers in his one and only season in Green Bay, Owens started 11 games. He will ink a two-year contract with the Bears on Wednesday.
Jonathan Owens, a former safety for the Green Bay Packers, has agreed to terms with the Chicago Bears, according NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo. When the NFL’s official free agency period kicks off on Wednesday, Owens will sign a two-year contract with the Bears.
Owens joined the Packers last season on a one-year, $1.01 million deal as an inexpensive experienced addition to their safety room. Green Bay had Owens and Rudy Ford splitting time at safety opposite Darnell Savage with Adrian Amos on his way out. Owens ended up starting 11 games for the Packers after beginning the season with the Houston Texans with 17.
at ease. Not only has Savage agreed to a free-agent contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars, but the Packers have also lost Owens. General manager Brian Gutekunst will need to pair McKinney with someone this offseason, whether it’s through the draft or free agency. The likelihood of an outside signing increases with Owens’ departure.
The Packers obviously believe they still have some money to play with in the veteran market based on their linebacker activities. Here are the top-150 players still available at the safety position, per The Athletic’s list of free agents, following two days of “legal tampering”:
