T.J. Edwards Says Fibula Rehab on Track, Eyes Summer Return for Bears

His recovery could shape a reworked linebacker group reshaped by offseason moves.

Overview

  • Edwards, who addressed reporters Tuesday, said he feels in a good spot after a fractured fibula in January and wants to be full speed before the regular season.
  • He declined to set a firm date and said he is following a trainer-led plan as the team takes a cautious approach this offseason.
  • He has been rehabbing at Halas Hall and is walking without a boot, which he called a good sign four months post-injury.
  • The Bears released Tremaine Edmunds and added Devin Bush, setting up a new linebacker pairing once Edwards is cleared.
  • He stayed to celebrate with teammates after being carted off in the playoff win and is leaning into a leadership role while he recovers.
