Bears Acquire Pass Rusher Tryon-Shoyinka in Deadline Trade with Browns

In a move to fortify their defensive unit, the Chicago Bears have acquired defensive lineman Joe Tryon-Shoyinka from the Cleveland Browns ahead of the NFL's trade deadline. The Bears sent a 2026 sixth-round pick to Cleveland in exchange for Tryon-Shoyinka and a seventh-round selection.

Tryon-Shoyinka, a former first-round pick by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2021, has played a limited role for the Browns this season, seeing action on just 31 defensive snaps in eight games. The Bears hope the 24-year-old can provide a boost to their pass rush, which has been hit hard by injuries in recent weeks.

On Sunday, the Bears lost starting defensive end Dayo Odeyingbo for the season due to an Achilles tendon tear. A week earlier, rookie Shemar Turner was also sidelined for the year with an ACL tear. With Dominique Robinson still out with a high ankle sprain, the Bears' defensive front has been in flux, prompting the team to seek reinforcements.
