The Chicago Bears signed five-time Pro Bowl safety Adrian Wilson and tight end Jeron Mastrud to one-year contracts, the team announced Monday.
Wilson, a Pro Bowler in 2006 and 2008-11, started 162 of 181 games over 12 seasons (2001-12) with the Arizona Cardinals, recording 885 tackles, 27 interceptions, 25.5 sacks, 99 pass breakups, 15 forced fumbles and eight fumble recoveries. He has four return touchdowns (two from interceptions and two from fumbles).
Wilson, 34, tore his Achilles in the preseason finale last year with the New England Patriots and spent the season on injured reserve after signing a three-year, $5 million deal. He was released by the Patriots on April 4.
The 6-foot-3, 230-pound Wilson is one of 13 players to record 20 or more interceptions and 20 or more sacks in their career since sacks became an official statistic in 1982.
The 6-6, 255-pound Mastrud appeared in 52 games with 18 starts over four seasons with the Miami Dolphins (2010-12) and Oakland Raiders (2013), grabbing seven receptions for 96 yards. Last season, Mastrud started 12 of 16 games played hauling in six receptions for 88 yards.
