Touching grass

Bears are bringing in Iowa TE/FB Hayden Large for a tryout and I honestly think he has a good chance to make the team as they will probably carry 4 TEs. Great blocker, special teams experience, and great character. He was the one giving the pregame hype up speech for Iowa 🔊

#Bears skill position players likely to be in camp.

Gotta say I have really enjoyed watching @TheUFL this season, some good football with some good football players… the NFL needs to get behind this and use to grow players like they used to with #NFLEurope (I know the incredible value it would have)!

Windy City work 😤 @MaverickMcIvor has accepted an invitation to @NFL rookie minicamp with the @ChicagoBears 📲: bit.ly/4uiRttv

I don't want to be that #DaBears fan that gets overly excited about a Day 3 pick but the more I dive into van den Berg......is he a steal in the 6th? Why was he a 6th round pick? The tape is intoxicating.

NEWS: Chicago #Bears second-year pick wide receiver Luther Burden III posted a video that he has been grinding this off-season and training. Burden was a 2025 second-round pick and is expected to have a major breakout season with Caleb Williams. 👀👀👀

Some @kylemonangai for your timeline 😁

@FrankCalabrese @dwcprodz Is that Tina Faye?

The Chase Claypool falloff should be studied by league execs. Dude was a promising receiver with all the traits and talent. Even had a solid 2.5 years of solid NFL stats.

Cannot wait to see #Bears WR Jahdae Walker in 2026. Limited sample size at the end of the season, but when used, he was dynamite -6 rec (4 being 1st downs) -14.5 YPC -2 TD (Best one here vs. GB) Also, still have him for 2 more years 🔥

News: The Birmingham #Stallions are signing CB Clarence Lewis, per source. Lewis, who was in camp with the Gamblers, has had NFL stints with the #Titans & #Dolphins. Has 160 tackles, 30 pass breakups, & 4 INT's to his name collegiately. #UFL

Tonight we are taking a peak at new #bears UDFA DT @JaydenLoving1 moving from Wake Forest to Lake Forest. First off if you didn’t see his RAS score, this dude is freak athlete. At 6’1 309 and with his athleticism he fits that Dennis Allen DT profile. Very good speed and pop off the ball, looks like he’s stout in the run game. Takes on double teams well. Love that acceleration. Shorter arms and needs some work on technique but that what’s our coaching is here for. Overall, really like this signing. I think he’s got a lot of potential. I think he has a lot to work with. At DT right now we have Grady and Gervon. Shemar seems to be moving to the Edge, and our depth is new signings Gallimore, Street, and Lynch, and 6th rounder Van den berg. It will be tough for Loving to crack the 53 man roster but with a great camp, he should be a prime candidate for the practice squad. I’m Loving it. - cream
