🏕️ Training camp updates
- The Bears' offense seems to be coming together this preseason, led by new head coach Ben Johnson and second-year quarterback Caleb Williams. Johnson described Williams as "locked-in" this summer despite some ups and downs.
- Chicago rebuilt its offensive line this offseason after Williams was the most-sacked QB in the NFL in 2024, bringing in guards Joe Thuney and Jonah Jackson, as well as center Drew Dalman.
- The Bears have an open competition at left tackle. Incumbent starter Braxton Jones is battling rookie Ozzy Trapilo, recent third-rounder Kiran Amegadjie, and others for the starting role.
- Chicago is expected to heavily feature two tight ends on the field at the same time this season after drafting Colston Loveland 10th overall to pair with veteran Cole Kmet.
- Rookie wide receiver Luther Burden III has been a breakout performer throughout training camp and the preseason.
