The Chicago Bears made a surprising move on Thursday, moving on from a player they chose in the 2025 NFL Draft.

After losing starting safeties Kevin Byard III and Jaquan Brisker and turnover machine at cornerback Nahshon Wright in free agency, the Bears added a couple of key players in the secondary in this year’s draft, taking safety Dillon Thieneman in the first round and adding cornerback Malik Muhammad in the fourth round.

Muhammad is expected to compete with Tyrique Stevenson for playing time this season.

There will be less competition for a spot in training camp this summer as the Bears announced on Thursday they were releasing Zah Frazier. Chicago took Frazier in the fifth round of last year’s draft.

The Chicago Bears failed to vet Zah Frazier before the draft

Frazier missed all of last season for what the Bears deemed a “personal issue.” He was placed on the non-football injury/illness list. Poles admitted last August that his scouting department failed to properly vet Frazier before the draft.

“(Frazier) had a situation that presented itself in a category that I would say (is) ‘personal,’” Poles said. “As we dug into it, tried to help him out, it revealed itself as something that happened before he got here. So, credit to our staff finding the root cause of what he was going through.

But not soon enough for the Bears to avoid wasting a Day 3 pick.

Frazier was a standout for UTSA before entering the 2025 draft. He practiced during rookie minicamp in May but did not return to practice for voluntary or mandatory OTAs.

Frazier planned to work with the Bears medical staff, work out in the weight room, and be present in meetings so he could return for the 2026 season, but the team is cutting bait on the six-foot-three cornerback this spring, giving reps to players that will have a better chance to contribute during the regular season.
