Margus Hunt - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Two stops in finale Hunt tallied two stops in the Bears' 31-17 Week 18 loss to the Vikings, and he ended the season with 14 tackles in 10 games.

Impact Hunt played in a rotational role for the Bears over the last seven games of the season, but he averaged fewer than 1.5 tackles per game while not recording a sack. He'll be an unrestricted free agent this offseason, but he's recorded just one sack since 2018 as he goes into his age-35 season. It's unlikely he'll be a significant factor in 2022 IDP leagues.

Reverts back to practice squad Hunt reverted to the Bears' practice squad Monday, according to the NFL transactions log.

Impact Hunt was promoted from the practice squad to the active roster prior to Sunday's Week 3 loss to the Browns. He contributed three tackles and one tackle for loss, while working primarily on special teams but also along the team's defensive line. Hunt has been active for each of the team's last two games, so he'll need to be signed to the active roster before taking the field for the Bears in another game this season.
