Bears sign LB, special teams contributor Cole to 1-year deal
The Chicago Bears have signed linebacker and special teams contributor Dylan Cole to a one-year contractMARCH 23, 2023 • Associated Press
Finds new home Cole signed with the Bears on Thursday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact Cole will join his third NFL team for the 2023 season after previously playing for Houston and Tennessee. The 28-year-old appeared in 15 games last year for the Titans, making eight starts and recording a career-high 64 tackles (42 solo), a sack and a pass defended. Looking ahead, he'll likely chip in on special teams while contributing as a rotational player in the Bears' linebacker corps.

Chance to play Week 18 Cole (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against Jacksonville.
Impact Cole has been sidelined since Week 15 while dealing with an ankle injury. However, he did return to practice with three limited sessions during Week 18 prep, leaving him with a chance to return for Saturday's pivotal regular-season finale. Cole played at least 78 percent of defensive snaps from Weeks 12 to 14, so his availability could provide some stability for Tennessee's injury-riddled linebacker corps Week 18.

Still limited by ankle Cole (ankle) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Impact Cole has missed back-to-back games due to an ankle injury, but he's trending in the right direction after logging back-to-back limited sessions to start Week 18 prep. He'll have one more chance to submit a full practice before the Titans need to make a decision on his status for Saturday's matchup against Jacksonville.

Unavailable for TNF Cole (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Cowboys, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Impact Cole is now slated to miss his second consecutive matchup as a result of the ankle injury he sustained in Week 15 versus the Chargers. With plenty of the Titans' linebackers currently nursing injuries of their own, Tarell Basham, Monty Rice, Andrew Adams and Rashad Weaver figure to serve as the team's starters Thursday night against Dallas.

Won't play Saturday Tennessee coach Mike Vrabel ruled Cole out Thursday for Saturday's game against the Texans with an ankle injury, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Cole appears to have picked up this injury during Sunday's loss to the Chargers, as his 19 defensive snaps in this game fell well below his typical share of defensive snaps from the previous three weeks. The 28-year-old will now look to work his way back into practice before the Titans' Week 17 game against Dallas on Thursday Night Football. With Cole sidelined, Andrew Adams and Jack Gibbens are likely next in line to start at Tennessee's injury-riddled inside linebacker position.

Team-high eight tackles Cole registered eight tackles (five solo), including one for loss, during Sunday's 24-17 win over the Colts.
Impact With Zach Cunningham (elbow) out, Cole notched season highs in defensive snaps (26) and tackles (eight). If Cunningham remains out for an extended period, Cole could emerge as a reliable IDP option moving forward.
