Inks deal with Dallas The Cowboys signed Sanborn to a one-year deal Wednesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Impact The 24-year-old linebacker from Wisconsin will reunite with Cowboys defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus, who served as the Bears' head coach for most of Sanborn's three-year tenure in Chicago. Sanborn had the worst year of his career in 2024, tallying a career-low 35 total tackles, including 1.5 sacks, along with three passes defended over 17 regular-season appearances and 228 defensive snaps. Now in Dallas, he's expected to compete for the one of the team's starting inside linebacker roles.

Headed for free agency Chicago will not tender Sanborn, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Sanborn's per-snap production in 2024 was actually comparable to what it was in his 2023 season, in which he logged 65 tackles. However, he couldn't get onto the field as much last year, resulting in a relatively disappointing tackle total (35) for the campaign. The Bears could still sign him again, but they may now have to compete with other bidders.

Worst season of career Sanborn recorded one tackle in the Bears' 24-22 win over the Packers on Sunday.
Impact Sanborn had posted 64 and 65 tackles during his first two seasons in the league. In 2024, the veteran ended the season with 35 stops and 1.5 sacks in 17 games. The biggest issue was that the Bears followed a trend in the league in which teams often use two linebackers on the field, instead of the traditional three or four. The defensive scheme resulted in Sanborn playing just 22 percent of the snaps. He'll be a restricted free agent this offseason.

Notches sack Sanborn posted two tackles and a sack in the Bears' 19-13 loss to the Texans on Sunday.
Impact With the Bears often playing with two linebackers on the field, Sanborn is often the odd-man out. In this game, he played just 18 percent of the snaps, and Sanborn now has just two tackles on the season. The lack of playing time makes him difficult to count on in IDP leagues.

Listed as starting linebacker Sanborn is listed at the starting outside linebacker ahead of Noah Sewell.
Impact After last year's Week 13 bye, Sanborn played fewer than 20 percent of the snaps in each contest. Prior to that time, the linebacker had a number of games in which he played elevated snaps when Chicago dealt with linebacker injuries. Since 2022, when Sanborn has called upon to start, he has compiled high tackle totals, making him an excellent IDP in those cases. If the veteran can hold off Sewell for the starting role, Sanborn could be a sneaky IDP option.

Strong performance Sanborn recorded 10 tackles in the Bears' 24-17 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
Impact Sanborn started in place of Tremaine Edmunds (knee). Going back to last year, whenever Sanborn is pressed into a starting role, he is a top IDP at linebacker. There's no word as to whether Edmunds will miss additional time, but if he does, Sanborn should be rostered in most league formats.

Surprises with big game Sanborn tallied eight tackles in the Bears' 30-13 loss to the Chargers on Sunday.
Impact Sanborn saw an elevated snap count when Tremaine Edmunds (knee) left the contest early. As became evident when Chicago traded away Roquan Smith last year, if Sanborn has to step in for Edmunds for any period of time, he'll be an instant starting IDP capable of churning out double-digit tackles in any given start.
