Rome Odunze wants to be great. He has lofty goals for his NFL career, and he's looking to leave a lasting legacy. I sat down with the Bears receiver to talk about those goals, what he's learned from Antwaan Randle El, working with Caleb, DJ, and more. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Our Bears Wire All-Quarter Century team is complete! I had a ton of fun putting this together with @alyssabarbieri.bsky.social Check out our final roster and thanks to those who followed along the last week. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/n…

Our Bears All-Quarter Century Team is almost complete! See who we have at linebacker, cornerback, and safety.

We're onto the defense for our Bears All-Quarter Century Team! Here are our selections for EDGE rusher, a position groups that features Hall of Fame-caliber players. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

We're rounding out the Bears All-Quarter Century Team offense with the offensive line. See who we picked at tackle, guard, and center. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Last one of the day! Here are the tight ends on the Bears All-Quarter Century Team. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Our Bears All-Quarter Century Team continues with wide receivers, and some tough decisions were made on who to include at the final spot. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

We're rolling on with our Bears All-Quarter Century Team! Here are the running backs, a position that has consistently produced over the last 25 years. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

This week on Bears Wire, we're unveiling our Bears All-Quarter Century team by position. First up: Quarterbacks bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Is Cole Kmet's role with the Bears already doomed with Colston Loveland in the fold? Not necessarily. We've seen this dynamic work well in the past in Chicago and it serves as a blueprint for the 2025 season. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

A couple of former undrafted quarterbacks who put up gaudy numbers in college are in competition for the Chicago Bears QB2 spot. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

We all saw the Caleb Williams comments this week. It's in the past, thanks to the hiring of Ben Johnson. The Bears needed to take that swing not only for Williams' sake, but to prove the organization is finally changing. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

NFL schedule release week is here and I made my predictions for the Bears' prime-time matchups this season. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

It's kind of crazy that Brandon Marshall has the 5th-most receiving TDs in Bears history (31) and he played less than 3 full years (45 games). Marshall's 31 scores are tied with Curtis Conway (92 games) and Johnny Morris (121 games). Dude was a monster.

Here's a rundown of all my initial grades for each Bears pick. I usually like to wait until they hit the field but why not have some fun? bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

The Bears extended TJ Edwards earlier in the week, a move I was hoping would happen last offseason. So why am I not over the moon about it? Here is my grade for the deal. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Some were easy decisions, some were tough calls. Who do you think stands out as the best Bears draft picks from the last 10 years? bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

It's been real, Bulls.

The best thing at the United Center on Wednesday night was the Bears quarterback. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Better late than never. Now that the contract details have come out for new Bears WRs Olamide Zaccheaus and Devin Duvernay, I graded their signings. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Today marks 6 years since I began covering the Bears for Bears Wire. I didn't know it then, but that day changed my life. I'm so grateful for the opportunities I've earned & the people I've met with along the way. Thank you all for your support. I wouldn't be here without you!

Last year, it was apparent the Bears needed another impact player at the defensive tackle position, and a strong leader up front. Grady Jarrett checks both of those boxes. Here is my initial grade of the signing. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

I wanted to thank everyone so much for the support on our podcast. It is so appreciated if you share with your friends! As a reminder, you can subscribe on Apple Podcasts at podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/p...

The Bears are betting on Dayo Odeyingbo's development as he enters the prime of his career, but should they have just kept DeMarcus Walker, a similar player, for a fraction of the cost? Here is my initial grade of the signing. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

The Bears were treating the center position like they were driving beaten up Chevy Impala. They finally upgraded to a reliable option, even if it's not the best of the best. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

$26 million???

Free agency frenzy has certainly lived up to its name so far. Follow along with #Bears signings and rumors: bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Who could forget the days of Will Montgomery and Vlad Ducasse?

Another potential Bears target is off the board (though I always figured it was a long shot)

Friendly reminder that the Steelers play the Bears at Soldier Field this season...

The Commanders have agreed to terms with former 49ers and Jets DT Javon Kinlaw, source tells @cbssports.bsky.social. Kinlaw is coming off a career-high 4.5 sacks with the Jets last season.

The Bears have plenty of talent on the offensive line now with 3 new starters in Thuney, Jackson, and Dalman. The biggest question will be how quickly they can develop chemistry. Aside from the poor play in general, chemistry was a big issue last year. Hopefully they can gel early.

Drew Dalman is signing a 3-year deal with the Bears worth $42 million with $28 million guaranteed per Ian Rapoport.

Left tackle Jaylon Moore to the Kansas City Chiefs on a two-year deal, per Adam Schefter on ESPN

Haason Reddick to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on a one-year deal worth $14 mil per Adam Schefter.

First Bears reported signing? I'll go 11:07 AM CT

👀

Welp

This might be Blue Sky's biggest day ever if Twitter stays down for the first day of NFL free agency.

Before free agency begins this week, I took one final look at the Bears' 2024 free agent class to see how they did. I also included our initial grades from when they signed, just to see how much better (or worse) they did based on expectations. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Hey everyone, sorry I've been MIA on here. But I've still been writing throughout the offseason! bearswire.usatoday.com/staff/744362...

The Bears are playing for pride this weekend against the Packers, but a few players can reach some significant milestones. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

🚨 BEARS COACHING CANDIDATE POWER RANKINGS 🚨 I took 12 potential coaching candidates for the Bears job and ranked them against one another. Who's too low? Who's too high? bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Just about 2 hours until kickoff so here are a few bold predictions for Bears vs. Seahawks. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

The Lions drew up the seldom-used stumblerooski against the Bears, and it turns out they're the ones who inspired it. Ben Johnson is diabolical. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

I'm at the point where I'm predicting pre-snap penalties because of how Bad the Bears are. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Friendly reminder that the Bears didn't score a touchdown and allowed 15 total sacks in the 2 games Braxton Jones missed earlier this year. He's out this week with a concussion. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Getting ready to order an ice coffee when it's 2 degrees outside.

Ryan Poles is reportedly unhappy with the Bears' power structure now that he is reporting to team president Kevin Warren. bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...
