Signed a contract with the Chiefs in February of 2025.
Lands on IR
The Chiefs placed Bush (Achilles) on injured reserve Monday.
ANALYSIS
This move was inevitable after Bush tore his left Achilles tendon in Saturday's preseason loss to Denver. The veteran safety will miss the entire 2025 campaign but has a chance of being ready for the 2026 season.

2016 Fantasy Outlook
The Bears selected Bush in the fourth round after he finished a solid collegiate career with the Miami Hurricanes. After the team released Antrel Rolle on May 4, he’ll be in the mix to earn the starting strong safety role, though he’ll have plenty of competition during the preseason. Should he win the job, his ability to compile tackles would make him an IDP target.
