Bears | Press Taylor promoted to OC Sun Feb 8, 02:19 PM
Chicago Bears passing game coordinator Press Taylor was named as the team's new offensive coordinator Sunday, Feb. 8. However, head coach Ben Johnson will continue to be responsible for calling offensive plays.
| Footballguys view: Taylor wasn't a big success at previous stops, but he won't be calling plays in Chicago, and he has had time to add to his repertoire under Johnson last season. This is good news for Caleb Williams because it represents continuity in the passing game that Taylor coordinated last season. |

Bears | Connor Senger sought for Bears interview Tue Feb 3, 10:42 AM
Arizona Cardinals pass game specialist Connor Senger has been requested for an interview for the Chicago Bears offensive coordinator post.
| Footballguys view: Senger joined the Cardinals as a coaching fellow in 2022 and took on his current role after working as a quality control coach and assistant quarterbacks coach. According to Profootballtalk.com, Senger has drawn interest as a quarterbacks coach in recent days as teams put together their coaching staffs ahead of the 2026 season, and he also served as the offensive coordinator for the East team in this year's East-West Shrine Bowl. Senger called plays in that role, but Bears head coach Ben Johnson handles those duties in Chicago. |
Bears | Caleb Williams productive in final quarter Sun Feb 1, 11:47 AM
Chicago Bears QB Caleb Williams produced a league-leading six fourth-quarter comebacks during the 2025 regular season.
| Footballguys view: Williams flourished in his first year working with coach Ben Johnson, setting a Bears single-season passing record with 3,942 yards and ranking fifth in the NFL with a 27-to-7 touchdown-to-interception ratio. The late-game heroics added to that. The former USC standout was at his best in crunch time, regularly displaying his clutch gene with remarkable highlight throws that had to be seen to be believed. Fantasy investors can expect to pay a premium for Williams, who finished as QB5, in 2025. |

Link to story Bears | Caleb Williams was pressured in 2025 Tue Jan 20, 12:08 AM
Chicago Bears QB Caleb Williams was hurried a league-leading 94 times during the 2025 regular season and also led the league by being blitzed 174 times during the season.
| Footballguys view: The Bears experienced a significant turnaround in Ben Johnson's first season as coach. They went from five wins in 2024 to 11 in 2025 en route to the NFC North title. The Bears won their first playoff game in 15 seasons when they beat the Green Bay Packers in the wild-card round on Jan. 10. Williams was a big part of it, but there are areas in which both the QB and his team must improve. In particular, Williams said he plans to address his accuracy and footwork during the offseason. We'll be following his progress all offseason. |
Bears | Colston Loveland concussed Mon Jan 19, 11:45 AM
Chicago Bears TE Colston Loveland (concussion) left the game Sunday, Jan. 18, with a concussion and did not return.
| Footballguys view: Concussion aside, Loveland's rookie season was a success. After not surpassing 40 yards in the first six games, Loveland had 40 or more yards in 9-of-12 games the rest of the way. That included 118 yards and a winning touchdown in a wild win over the Bengals, then 94 and 91 yards in the last two games of the regular season. In addition, no rookie tight end had ever had more receiving yards in a single postseason than Loveland's 193 -- and that's in just two games. He'll be one of Caleb Williams' favorite targets for years to come. |

Chicago Bears TE Colston Loveland (concussion) was evaluated for a concussion during the team's Divisional Round loss to the Los Angeles Rams. He did not return.

Link to story Bears | Chicago poised to move on from DJ Moore? Mon Jan 19, 12:07 AM
Chicago Bears WR DJ Moore is likely to be traded during the offseason, in the opinion of ESPN's Ben Solak, who notes that Moore has little bonus money left, allowing the team to move on from him even though he still has four years remaining on his deal. Solak adds that the team is set at the position with WRs Rome Odunze and Luther Burden III, and that Moore will have a market.
| Footballguys view: As SI.com's Khari Thompson suggested, Moore hasn't consistently been the difference-maker he's being paid to be. And if he's going to give the ball away in important moments -- and many observers contend Moore stopped running on a route that allowed Kam Curl to make an easy pick that led to the Rams' OT win in last night's Divisional Playoff loss, he might have to go. Trading him feels like a distinct possibility this offseason. |

Bears | Chicago bounced from playoffs in overtime Sun Jan 18, 10:01 PM
Chicago Bears QB Caleb Williams completed 23 of his 42 passes for 257 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions in a 20-17 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional Round. He added 40 rushing yards on five carries. RB D'Andre Swift rushed 19 times for 76 yards, and RB Kyle Monangai chipped in 36 rushing yards on 13 carries and caught four passes for 36 yards. TE Colston Loveland caught four passes for a team-high 56 yards, and WR DJ Moore had 52 receiving yards and a touchdown on a team-high five catches. WR Rome Odunze gained 44 receiving yards on two receptions, WR Luther Burden III added three catches for 24 yards, and TE Cole Kmet finished with three grabs for 31 yards and a game-tying touchdown that forced overtime. S Jaquan Brisker led the way on defense with a team-high 14 tackles, including eight solo stops, a sack and two passes defensed. CB Kyler Gordon, DE Montez Sweat and DE Dominique Robinson all recorded a sack in the loss.
| Footballguys view: As ESPN.com's Courtney Cronin wrote, "They were the Cardiac Bears until the very end." After facing a seven-point deficit late in the game, Williams squeezed one more drop of fourth-quarter magic when he found Kmet in the corner of the north end zone at Soldier Field for a 14-yard touchdown to force the extra period. The Bears failed to score after their sole possession of overtime ended with Williams throwing an interception, his third of the game. Nonetheless, Ben Johnson's first year with the Bears was a resounding success despite Chicago falling short of reaching the title game as the NFC's No. 2 seed. The Bears finished with 11 wins in the regular season and their first playoff win in 15 years when they beat the Packers in the wild-card round. |
