Bears' Dalman Retires at 27

Chicago Bears center Drew Dalman has informed the team of his decision to retire at just 27 years old, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The move comes as a significant surprise considering Dalman's age and recent contract extension, which he signed last March as part of the team's efforts to improve.

Dalman, who previously played four seasons with the Atlanta Falcons before joining the Bears, was selected to the Pro Bowl in his lone season with Chicago. The team went from worst to first in the NFC North last season, with Dalman playing a key role on the offensive line.
