Bears sign veteran safety Duron Harmon |
This is a solid move for the Monsters of the Midway.
The Chicago Bears announced that they have signed veteran safety Duron Harmon to the 53-man active roster off the Baltimore Ravens' practice squad on Tuesday. Duron is an 11-year veteran with 161 games and 78 career starts and a three-time Super Bowl champion with the New England Patriots. He also has had stints with the Atlanta Falcons and Detroit Lions. In 2022, he had a career-high 86 tackles, two interceptions, and two forced fumbles with the Raiders. He has 23 career interceptions in 161 total games. "He has experience in a lot of different systems," Eberflus said after the signing. "We like the man. He's a really good football player, but he's also a really good person. We feel good where that is. We think he can bring some stability to that in the safety room." The need for added depth in the secondary was necessary with Eddie Jackson's left foot injury that has sidelined him for the last two games. With so many injuries in the Bears secondary, Harmon might need to be ready to play for Thursday night's game against the Washington Commanders. The #Bears have signed Duron Harmon to their active roster, some much needed DB depth added to the roster. #Bears are expected to sign S Duron Harmon off the #Ravens practice squad. Harmon is an 11-year veteran with 161 games and 78 starts, many with highly successful #Patriots teams. He's the second defensive back the team has poached off a PSQ in the last two weeks.
Harmon spent six years with the Patriots, racking up 3 rings. Was with the Raiders last year and had a career high in tackles with 2 INTs
