The Bears are set to add seven players in the 2025 draft that will be held in Green Bay, Wisconsin, from April 24-26. Chicago announced five players they re-signed on Monday as they start their OTAs.

During training camp in August, the Bears traded a sixth-round pick to the Cleveland Browns in exchange for Williams and a seventh-round pick. He appeared in all 17 games for the Bears in 2024, recording a career-high 23 tackles and three sacks.

Ford, a former seventh-round pick by the Green Bay Packers, appeared in four games for the Bears in 2024. He recorded nine tackles, including one for a loss.

Hardy appeared in 17 games for Chicago last season, recording 12 tackles and one forced fumble.

Murray appeared in three games for Chicago last season before suffering a pec injury in October that sidelined him for the remainder of the season.

Speed appeared in two games for Chicago in 2024.
