Chicago Bears

Rome Odunze

WR

Odunze also used the word 'amazing' to describe how he feels, perhaps looking to set the record straight after his June comments about a "new normal" led to some panic from Bears fans and fantasy managers. He suffered a stress fracture in his foot last season, derailing what had the look of a breakout year through September and the first half of October. Odunze returned for the playoffs and avoided surgery in the offseason, with no hint of any trouble (besides the one quote) during OTAs and minicamp. He, Luther Burden and TE Colston Loveland are locked in as Caleb Williams' top three targets, in some unknown order.

Jedrick Wills Jr.

OT

Wills is competing with both Braxton Jones and Ozzy Trapilo (knee) for the starting job. Wills -- who has moved past the knee issues he's dealt with in the past and is participating in training camp -- signed a one-year contract with the Bears back in March after having spent the last five years in Cleveland.

Kiran Amegadjie

OT

Amegadjie was unable to play any snaps in 2025 after being placed on Chicago's injured reserve list with an elbow injury in September, but he's now back in football shape for training camp. He'll continue to compete with 2025 second-rounder Ozzy Trapilo (knee) and Jedrick Wills (knee) for positioning on the 2026 depth chart at tackle.

Montez Sweat

DE

Sweat is all set to return to training camp and continue producing for the Bears' defense. The defensive end's recovery is right on track, and he was able to pass his physical.

Kyle Monangai

RB

Monangai also wasn't spotted during Thursday's practice, making this his second consecutive absence. The Bears haven't provided details on the issue, so Monangai should be considered day-to-day until more information surfaces. He remains in line for a complementary role behind D'Andre Swift, but missed camp reps could pile up if his absence continues. Roschon Johnson, Brittain Brown and Salvon Ahmed will benefit from increased reps as long as Monangai is unavailable.
