The Chicago Bears signed cornerback Joejuan Williams off Minnesota’s practice squad on Wednesday.
Williams, 25, was a second-round pick by New England in 2019 and played in 36 games (one start) for the Patriots from 2019-21. He recorded 44 tackles and eight passes defensed.
Williams missed the entire 2022 season with a shoulder injury and signed as a free agent with the Vikings in April.
Members of the winless Bears’ banged-up secondary include cornerbacks Kyler Gordon (injured reserve, hand), Jaylon Johnson (hamstring) and Tyrique Stevenson (concussion).
