Bears re-sign Lewis to 1-year deal

The Chicago Bears re-signed tight end Marcedes Lewis to a one-year deal, the team announced Monday.

The financial terms of the deal weren't announced.

Lewis joined the Bears in 2023, appearing in all 17 games. The run-blocking specialist hauled in four receptions for 29 yards and a touchdown while playing 29% of the club's offensive snaps.

The 40-year-old is entering his 19th professional season, the most by a tight end in NFL history.

Lewis has totaled 5,113 yards and 40 touchdowns on 436 receptions across 268 career games.

Lewis was selected No. 28 overall in the 2006 draft by the Jacksonville Jaguars. The UCLA product spent 12 years with Jacksonville, earning a Pro Bowl nod in 2010. He spent five seasons with the Green Bay Packers before joining the Bears.
