The Bears announced Wednesday that they have signed their free agents offensive lineman Alex Bars, inside linebacker Josh Woods, outside linebacker James Vaughters, running back Ryan Nall, and tight end J.P. Holtz.

Vaughters had 19 tackles, two tackles for loss, 1.5 sacks, and two quarterback hits last season in his second year with the Bears.
