Bears | Caleb Williams looking at more time under center Tue Apr 1, 10:39 PM
Chicago Bears QB Caleb Williams is expected to take significant reps under center this offseason as new head coach Ben Johnson looks to 'go back to basics' with his new quarterback.'There are some things that we're going to encourage that he looks to do a little bit differently. He's been predominantly a shotgun quarterback for most of his high school and college career, and so he's very comfortable there. We're going to work to see the comfort level under center and how much of that applies. We had a lot of success where I was last, that going under center for the run game did translate in play action,' Johnson told the team's website.

| Footballguys view: Swift did not produce in the expected way last season, but the team has a contract situation that keeps him around for another year. We'll see if the Bears add another running back to the mix in the draft, as this is an incredibly deep class at the position. |

Bears | Rome Odunze should be more involved Thu Feb 13, 09:12 AM
Chicago Bears WR Rome Odunze should receive a bigger role next season even if the team re-sign WR Keenan Allen or sign another veteran receiver, in the opinion of BearsWire's Mike Pendleton.
Link to story Bears | Keenan Allen may not return Sun Feb 9, 06:49 PM
Chicago Bears impending free-agent WR Keenan Allen probably will not return to the Bears unless he is opening to signing a one-year contract with a team-friendly salary, in the opinion of BearsWire's Alyssa Barbieri.
| Footballguys view: Visions of Allen in the Amon-Ra St. Brown role in Ben Johnson's offense should be dashed by this item, if it wasn't already obvious that Allen wasn't likely to return. DJ Moore is also well-suited for the role and unlike Allen, he is in his prime. Moore could blow away his early 4th/5th round ADP with Allen gone. Rome Odunze is also set to go lower than he did in 2024 fantasy drafts, which could present major value with Allen gone. |
