Chicago Bears Sign Fullback

The Chicago Bears have signed fullback Khari Blasingame to a two-year contract extension of undisclosed value.

Blasingame had previously spent the 2022 season with the team, appearing in all 16 games but serving exclusively as a blocker. During that time, he did not receive a single rushing attempt and missed his only target in the passing game.

Despite this, Blasingame has proved to be a reliable and valuable asset on special teams, where he has been regularly deployed to support the kicking and punting units.

Over his four-year career in the NFL, Blasingame has only carried the ball three times for six yards and caught 10 out of 13 targets for a total of 97 yards.

However, his experience and consistency in blocking will continue to make him a key player for the Bears' rushing attack, as well as a reliable contributor to the team's special teams efforts. Photo Credit: Daniel Bartel-USA TODAY Sports
