Bears' Montez Sweat Suspended, Loses $2.3M Salary, Future Guarantees Void
Chicago Bears defensive end Montez Sweat has been suspended for two games without pay for violating the NFL's performance-enhancing substances policy. As a result, Sweat will forfeit $2.3 million of his 2026 salary, and the remaining $12.7 million becomes unsecured. Sweat is still due $21 million in 2027, but it's not guaranteed. The Bears may consider parting ways with Sweat in 2027 due to his reduced guarantees.5 sourcesSee all sources
