The Chicago Bears' chances of signing center Tyler Linderbaum in free agency always felt slim. Now, they might be disappearing.
Another suitor presumably just entered the sweepstakes for the most expensive center in football. Minnesota Vikings center Ryan Kelly announced his retirement with free agency quickly approaching. Now, Kevin O'Connell's squad is in the market for a new starter at the position.
Minnesota could be battling Chicago for Linderbaum's signature in the coming days. As more and more teams show interest in the former first-round draft pick, his price keeps getting pushed higher and higher.
