The Chicago Bears picked up a shocking win last night. They went into Foxborough as sizable underdogs against a New England Patriots team that had just won 2 games in a row.
The Bears were coming off of one of their worst performances of the year, having lost 12-7 at home against the Washington Commanders last Thursday. Despite the difference in form between the 2 teams, the Bears came out and absolutely dominated.
They took control of the game early and even got the Patriots to bench Mac Jones in the second quarter. They won the game 33-14, scoring 10 more points than they had in any other game this season.
Despite their success last night, the Bears are still expected to be trading one of their defensive stars before the deadline. The Bears have reportedly been looking into trading Robert Quinn.
Now, a new report from The Score’s Jordan Schultz has revealed that Quinn is getting interest from several teams around the NFL.
Chicago Bears star Robert Quinn is reportedly drawing interest from several teams
Continue to hear #Bears DE Robert Quinn as a trade candidate from several teams. The biggest hurdle right now is Quinn's $18.2M cap hit for 2023 and where Ryan Poles stands on that. Terrific player who had 18.5 sacks last season and would certainly help a contender.

Quinn’s performance this season has been a bit disappointing as he only has 1 sack in the Bears; first 7 games.
Despite that, it seems other teams are still hoping they could get him to produce like he did last season when he posted 18.5 sacks and earned nominations for the Pro Bowl and All-Pro 2nd team.
It’s unlikely the Bears will get a ton of compensation for the 34-year old, but it will certainly help them to get rid of his contract while he is struggling to produce.
