Two-time All-Pro guard Joe Thuney and the Chicago Bears agreed to a two-year contract extension, agent Mike McCartney announced on Tuesday.

Multiple media outlets reported the deal is worth $35 million, giving Thuney $51 million over the next three years with $33.5 million fully guaranteed at signing.

Chicago acquired Thuney from the Kansas City Chiefs on March 5 in exchange for a fourth-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.

Bears general manager Ryan Poles previously was in the Chiefs' personnel department and was executive director for player personnel in Kansas City when the team signed Thuney as a free agent to a five-year, $80 million contract in 2021.

Thuney, 32, is a two-time All-Pro with four Super Bowl rings -- two with the Chiefs, two with the New England Patriots. The three-time Pro Bowl selection has started all 146 regular-season games in which he has played since being selected by the Patriots in the third round of the 2016 NFL Draft.
