With the NFL Draft concluded and training camp on the horizon, teams around the league are making some mid-offseason acquisitions to bring in some depth and competition to the roster before the start of the new campaign. On Tuesday, the Chicago Bears brought in a former Kansas City Chiefs cornerback for a visit.

Reports indicate that Nazeeh Johnson , who has already met with the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants , is scheduled to visit with the Bears, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz. Johnson is mainly known for his prowess on special teams, and could be a key signing to help Chicago in that area.
"Source: Former Chiefs CB Nazeeh Johnson is visiting the Bears," reported Schultz. "Johnson amassed 66 total tackles and one sack during his time in Kansas City and was a key special teamer as well. He also recently met with NYG and PHI."
The three-year veteran has played 29 total games (six starts) in his career, all with the Chiefs. His most productive season came in the 2024-campaign, where he appeared in 16 out of 17 available contests. However, Johnson took on a reserve role last season after appearing in just two games.
Chicago has a rather loaded secondary for next season, especially after selecting former Oregon Ducks safety Dillon Thieneman in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, with Jaylon Johnson , Coby Bryant , and Tyrique Stevenson expected to play key roles for the defense. If Nazeeh Johnson, who is 27 years old , were to sign with the Bears, he would likely be competing for a depth spot, with most of his playing coming on special teams.
