Chicago is paying a steep price for Jeffery Simmons! The Bears are getting one of the NFL’s most respected interior defensive linemen. In return, Chicago is giving up its first- and fourth-round picks in the 2027 draft, as well as another first-round pick in 2028. A 2028 fifth-round pick is also going to the Titans.
Tom Pelissero of The Ringer first reported the trade. According to ESPN, sources confirmed the specific draft compensation to Adam Schefter. It’s an unusually big investment for Chicago: The team is giving up multiple first-round picks for the first time since trading for edge rusher Khalil Mack in 2019.
The move comes just months after Simmons signed a contract extension in Tennessee. In June, the Titans gave the defensive tackle a new three-year deal worth $105.8 million. His average annual salary of $35.276 million is the third-highest among interior defensive linemen, according to Over the Cap.
Simmons is coming off his best season
Simmons was selected in the first round of the 2019 draft and has spent his entire NFL career with the Titans. In Tennessee, he recorded 46.5 sacks, nine forced fumbles and 72 tackles for loss.

His most recent season was also the most productive of his career statistically. In 2025, the 29-year-old recorded 11 sacks, setting a career high. Simmons was then named First-Team All-Pro for the first time.
The trade gives the Bears not only a four-time Pro Bowler, but also an experienced playmaker to add to their defense. For Tennessee, meanwhile, it ends the team’s run with a player who had appeared in every season for the franchise since being drafted in 2019.
In return, the Titans gain additional options for building their roster in the coming drafts, while Chicago is making a major investment in Simmons with two first-round picks and another early-round selection.
