Chicago Bears' Rookie Prosdominantly Shine in Super Bowl!
The Bears signed a pair of defenders earlier this week with Cam Lewis and Kentavius Street. Here are our grades of the deals.
The first week of NFL free agency is coming to a close, and the Chicago Bears have been busy both welcoming and saying goodbye to various players. They made a pair of signings earlier in the week to bolster their defensive depth, signing defensive back Cam Lewis to a two-year deal and defensive lineman Kentavius Street to a one-year deal. Both players have experience playing multiple positions, which likely enticed general manager Ryan Poles.
Lewis spent the last six seasons with the Buffalo Bills as a Swiss Army knife on defense. Lewis played safety, both outside and nickel cornerback, and even linebacker during his time with the Bills. In 2025, Lewis made 43 tackles (one for a loss), had two forced fumbles, and four pass breakups.
Street, meanwhile, most recently played for the Atlanta Falcons in 2025 but has experience with defensive coordinator Dennis Allen from their days with the New Orleans Saints. Last year, Street played in seven games and totaled 21 tackles (three for loss) and two sacks. Here are our initial grades for the signings.
DB Cam Lewis Signing details: two years, $6 million ($2. 75 million guaranteed) Initial grade: B + The Bears' secondary is going to look very different in 2026, and it should be more versatile than ever. That's what the team is getting with someone like Lewis, who can play many different positions and be a useful piece for Dennis Allen's defense.
