Chicago Bears re-sign LB D’Marco Jackson ahead of 2026 NFL free agency
The Chicago Bears are going to be active in NFL free agency. They have a wide variety of needs that they have to address on both sides of the ball. Among these is the safety position on defense, as both of their starting safeties from 2025 are set to hit the open market.
But while the next few days are going to bring some clarity about what the Bears plan to do, they have already begun addressing the roster. The DJ Moore trade helped them find a new starting center, and gave them an extra second round pick.
However, they have kicked off the first unofficial day of NFL free agency by bringing back one of their own.
The Chicago Bears have re-signed linebacker D’Marco Jackson
According to multiple NFL insiders, on Monday morning, the Bears agreed to a contract with linebacker D’Marco Jackson. He spent the 2025 NFL season in Chicago, his first with the Bears and third overall in the league:

The contract is a two-year deal worth $7.5 million, but can be worth up to $10.5 million with incentives.
A fifth round pick by the New Orleans Saints in the 2022 NFL Draft, Jackson missed his entire rookie season due to injury. He played mostly on special teams in 2023, recording 12 tackles. However, his 2024 season was cut short due to injury as well, and after training camp of 2025, the Saints released him.
He was then picked up by Chicago, who gave him more defensive snaps than he had in his first two seasons combined. He played 261 total defensive snaps (26%), but still saw most of his playing time on special teams.
Jackson had a career-high 43 tackles last season.
