Major Bears release bursts door open for Commanders to strike

Daronte Jones needs more high-impact players for his defensive revolution. The Washington Commanders have plenty of money to throw around in free agency, so general manager Adam Peters needs to act swiftly and decisively to give his new coordinator a chance to hit the ground running.

And there was one notable development across the league that will no doubt provoke discussion among those in power in Washington.

The Chicago Bears were busy on Thursday. First, they shipped wide receiver D.J. Moore to the Buffalo Bills in a blockbuster deal. Then, general manager Ryan Poles released starting linebacker Tremaine Edmunds when no willing trade suitor came forward.
