BREAKING: Bears Sign QB Tyson Bagent to Two-Year, $10M Extension Through 2027
The Chicago Bears are making sure their quarterback room stays stable for the future. On Wednesday, the team reached an agreement with quarterback Tyson Bagent on a new two-year contract extension that will keep him in Chicago through the 2027 NFL season.
According to Bagent’s representatives at Milk and Honey Sports and Key Player Management, the extension is valued at $10 million with the chance to climb as high as $16 million if performance incentives are met. While the Bears have not disclosed official terms themselves, multiple reputable outlets confirmed the figures.
General Manager Ryan Poles expressed strong confidence in Bagent, highlighting his “relentless work ethic” and ability to positively influence teammates in the locker room. Poles added that the 24-year-old has proven himself to be a reliable competitor who fits perfectly into the culture the Bears are building.
Head coach Ben Johnson echoed the sentiment, calling Bagent “phenomenal” and praising the way he approaches both preparation and game-day responsibilities. Johnson believes the young quarterback’s mindset has already raised the standard inside the QB room.
This move shows the Bears’ commitment to developing Bagent as a steady piece of their roster moving forward. With this extension, Chicago not only secures a capable backup but also invests in a player who continues to earn the respect of the organization.
