By Allen Robinson’s account, the Bears had 365 days to ink a contract extension.

Speaking with members of the media a day after the Bears’ playoff loss to the New Orleans Saints, Robinson sounded like a man who doesn’t know what’s going to happen next. In a news conference with chairman George McCaskey and president/CEO Ted Phillips, Bears general manager Ryan Pace said the Bears held discussions with Robinson during the season.
