McManis was drafted by the Houston Texans in the fifth round (144th overall) of the 2010 NFL Draft.[1][2] He signed a four-year, $1.982 million contract with the Texans on May 27.[3]

Chicago Bears edit

On August 31, 2012, McManis was traded to the Chicago Bears for fullback Tyler Clutts.[4] In Week 9 against the Tennessee Titans, McManis blocked Brett Kern's punt, which was recovered by former Northwestern teammate Corey Wootton, who returned the blocked punt for a touchdown.[5] McManis was eventually named the NFC Special Teams Player of the Week.[6] McManis was placed on injured reserve on December 11.[7] In the 2015 season, McManis had 11 special-teams tackles, which led the team.[8]

On March 10, 2016, McManis was re-signed by the Bears to a two-year contract.[9]

On March 22, 2018, McManis signed a two-year contract to remain with the Bears. Since 2012, McManis has been Chicago's special teams ace, spending time as a captain while making 80 tackles in that time entering the 2018 season.[10] In Week 3 against the Arizona Cardinals, McManis recorded his first interception since 2010 off Sam Bradford's pass to Chad Williams.[11] Later in the season, he became the Bears' starting nickelback after Bryce Callahan suffered a season-ending foot injury.[12]

In week 5 of the 2019 season against the Oakland Raiders, McManis forced a fumble on Trevor Davis on the goal line in the 24–21 loss.[13] He was placed on injured reserve on November 30, 2019.[14]

McManis signed a one-year extension with the Bears on April 16, 2020.[15] During the 2020 season, McManis became the longest tenured Bears player, having played under four different coaching regimes dating back to Lovie Smith in 2012.[16] In Week 15 against the Minnesota Vikings, McManis intercepted a pass thrown by Kirk Cousins with no time left in the game to secure a 33–27 win for the Bears.[17] Following the conclusion of the 2020 season, McManis was not re-signed by the Bears and entered free agency where he went unsigned.
