Chicago Bears

Scotty Miller

WR

Miller spent the last two seasons with the Steelers after spending the first four years of his NFL career with the Buccaneers, with a one-season stint with Atlanta sandwiched in between. He didn't see much work in the Steelers' offense, and he finished the 2025 regular season with only nine catches (on 14 targets) for 62 yards across 13 games. Rome Odunze and Luther Burden are the clear top wideouts for the Bears, so Miller will be competing for offensive snaps against Kalif Raymond, Zavion Thomas and Jahdae Walker.

Gabriel Plascencia

PK

Plascencia made 87.8 percent of his field-goal attempts (36-for-41) in his last three seasons at San Diego State. The kicker was 19-for-23 in 2025 and was likely brought in to keep long-time Bears kicker Cairo Santos on his game ahead of the season. Santos' track record of consistency means his job is likely not in danger, and there is a good chance Plascencia will either move on from the Bears or shift to the practice squad by the start of the regular season.

Miller Moss

QB

Moss ended his collegiate career at Louisville, but he was the No. 2 quarterback at USC for the 2022 season. Caleb Williams will now be reunited with his former backup as he heads into his third season in the NFL. Moss completed 64.2 percent of his passes for 2,679 yards, 16 touchdowns and seven interceptions over 12 games for Louisville in 2025. With Tyson Bagent and Case Keenum already on the Bears' quarterback depth chart, Moss' potential likely caps out as a scout-team contributor who synergizes well with Williams as he continues to cement himself as a starter in the league.

Hayden Large

TE

Large played three years at Dordt before transferring to Iowa for his remaining three collegiate seasons. The tight end logged eight starts among his 12 appearances in 2025, gathering eight receptions for 52 receiving yards. The 24-year-old has minimal upside as a pass catcher, but he brings a reputation as a superior run blocker. If his physicality holds up against NFL defenders, Large could carve out a depth role on a Bears team that prioritized a physical run game in 2025.

Kyron Hudson

WR

Hudson spent the first three years of his collegiate career at USC before transferring to Penn State in 2025. The wide receiver started six games in 2025 and played in all 13, amassing 23 receptions for 288 yards and two touchdowns. The 6-foot-1, 212-pound receiver may have played his way onto the roster in rookie minicamp, but he will have to prove his NFL talent even more as the offseason program goes on to reach training camp.
