Bears sign longtime Broncos LB D.J. Williams
D.J. Williams - LB - Chicago Bears
March 22, 2013 - 2:10 PM ET

Bears signed LB D.J. Williams, formerly of the Broncos, to a one-year contract.

Williams, who turns 31 before the season, was a highly productive and versatile starter in Denver from 2004-2011, before multiple 2012 suspensions cost him a spot in the Broncos' rotation. He's played weak-side, strong-side, and middle linebacker in his career. Williams' Bears contract will keep him motivated. The one-year deal has a base value of $900,000 -- none of which is guaranteed -- and Williams can earn up to $1.75 million via incentives.
