Bears Try Out Six Players

The following is a list of the six players Chicago hosted: 

1. LB Chance Campbell
2. WR DJ Chark
3. TE Gordon Thomas
4. TE Peyton Hendershot
5. WR Matt Landers
6. DB Gervarrius Owens

Chark, 28, was a second-round pick by the Jaguars out of LSU back in 2018.  He signed a four-year, $4,447,229 contract with Jacksonville that includes a $1,314,349 signing bonus.

Chark was testing the market for the first time in his career when he agreed to a one-year, $10 million deal that was fully guaranteed with the Lions in 2022.

He joined the Panthers in 2023 on another one-year contract. The Chargers signed him to a one-year contract last April. 

In 2024, Chark appeared in seven games for the Chargers and caught four passes for 31 yards receiving and one touchdown.
