Chicago will not tender Sanborn a contract, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sanborn's per-snap production in 2024 was actually comparable to what it was the season before, when he logged 65 tackles. However, his playing time declined last year, resulting in a relatively disappointing tackle total (35). The Bears could still re-sign him, but he might look elsewhere for a larger opportunity.

Heading into Week 10, Jordan Mazzara notes Javon Hargrave's star is rising, as he has 15 tackles (12 solo) and five sacks over the last two games.
Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Sanborn's career statistics are misleading in terms of his IDP potential. Through two years, he's averaged 64.5 tackles per season. However, the Wisconsin product has played 87 percent or more of the defensive snaps in only seven contests, notching 10.1 tackles per game. The linebacker projects to move into a starting role this year, meaning his weekly tallies should be significantly higher than the last two seasons. Although Sanborn may not post 10 tackles per game, he should be a high-floor IDP.
After the Bears traded Roquan Smith to the Ravens following Week 8 last season, Sanborn, an undrafted rookie, stepped into a starting job and averaged 10.8 tackles per contests to go with a pair of sacks from Weeks 9 through 13. Most of Sanborn's production came at middle linebacker, though, so the offseason pickups of Tremaine Edmunds and T.J. Edwards may cap Sanborn's workload in his second campaign. Sanborn also ended 2022 on IR with an ankle injury but should be ready for training camp.
