Nick Kwiatkoski’s NFL career
The Chicago Bears drafted Nick Kwiatkoski in round four of the 2016 NFL Draft. Kwiatkoski started seven games in his rookie year and led the Bears in tackles in two games.
His next season was even better, as he appeared in 11 games (starting six). He recorded 47 tackles and two sacks. Kwiatkoski ended the 2017 season as the third-best inside LB in run-stop percentage, according to Pro Football Focus (PFF).
His next two seasons with the Bears were pretty decent, as he solidified his place as an NFL starting-caliber linebacker.
He left the Bears in 2020 to sign a three-year deal worth $21 million with the Las Vegas Raiders. His time with the Raiders wasn’t as successful as his stay at the Bears. Kwiatkoski spent significant time on the reserve/COVID-19 list and injured reserve. The Raiders eventually released him on March 16, 2022.
His next stop was in Atlanta. He made his season debut in Week 6 and helped the Falcons to a sporty but eventually unfruitful playoff push. At the end of the 2022 NFL season, he left the Falcons to sign for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
