I can’t begin to describe what a favor Bears GM Ryan Poles did by getting Rick Bates on a 4 year deal for $17M. With the $8.8M in the first 2 years, they will do some restructures now and then have a starting guard locked up in 2024 and 2025 for $4.1M each year. Fantastic value pic.twitter.com/J77adxNHqn
