“The entire team is bought in to Ben Johnson's winning ways.” Coltson Loveland  As we are getting close to wrapping our training camp tour, we caught up with Chicago Bears' first-round pick who sits with Ryan and Channing for an honest, fun and wide-ranging conversation about his rise from a small-town young buck in Idaho to becoming one of the biggest names in college football at Michigan — and now, one of the NFL's most intriguing playmakers. Colston takes us behind the scenes of the journey, the sacrifices and the moments that shaped him along the way. From Idaho hometown hero to winning a National Championship at Michigan with Jim Harbaugh to being selected as a first round draft pick to Chicago Bears. His name is rising quickly to the top of the NFL, he talks about feeding off the energy from Ben Johnson, the dawg mentality of his quarterback Caleb Williams and being apart of a roster determined to win at all costs.  He recounts last season's comebacks, his career high performance, the heated rivalry between Green Bay, Bears' playoff run and the expectations the team has instilled on themselves to chase a Lombardi trophy this season.  Colston gives his perspective on Johnson's offensive mind, his coaching style and why players are excited about what he's building in Chicago. He talks about Caleb's unique ability to make plays that seemingly shouldn't be possible, what it's like developing chemistry with him and why the Bears' offense has so much potential. Chicago and the NFL world has already embraced Colston — and apparently, so have the ladies As he acknowledges the attention that comes with being a young NFL star, his growing fan base and what it's like adjusting to life in the spotlight while still continuing to prove himself on the field. To Colston, It's bigger than the draft status, the attention or the hype...It's about his goals in the NFL, what he wants to accomplish in Chicago and the mindset required to bring championships to the city.

The Bears went down to Tennessee for a joint practice with the Titans, and it was physical. Dan Wiederer was there and brings all the details to Mark Grote. We kind like that the Bears are pushing the line of aggression in these practices.

And was one of the reporters on the beat intentionally antagonizing Johnson during his press conference?!

Leila Rahimi and Mark Grote shared another example of how Bears head coach Ben Johnson is focused on football and only football.

We're hitting the latest NFL news and notes to sharpen your fantasy edge — and two major storylines jump right off the page. Bears head coach Ben Johnson isn't hiding anything: he wants to blow out teams. Not "be aggressive," not "push the ball," but bury opponents. Bloom and Cecil break down what that means for fantasy — pace, volume, scoring spikes, and which Bears players benefit most from a coach openly embracing domination. Meanwhile, in Minnesota, Kyler Murray has officially won the Vikings' starting QB job. So what does that mean for Fantasy GMs. Bloom and Cecil dig into the ripple effects: Justin Jefferson's ceiling, the pace of the offense, Kyler's rushing value, and how this changes draft boards heading into August.   watch on YouTube -> https://youtu.be/VP2YclG49jA

The Bears just traded away a 2028 first-round pick and a 2027 third-round pick for rotational defensive lineman Shemar Turner in the middle of August. Big Sal is calling out the front office for panicking, showing zero trust in their own draft process, and handing future assets to the 49ers for a piece that will not fix their real problems. He explains how this move leaves Ben Johnson with a mismatched roster and predicts Chicago will spend the next two years regretting the picks while Green Bay keeps building the right way.

The Chicago Bears suffered an ugly 27-9 preseason loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, and while the result itself doesn't matter much, several developments absolutely DO.On today's episode of Chicago Bears Central, Haize breaks down the biggest takeaways from Chicago's second preseason game, including the continued problems at left tackle, another impressive showing from rookie defensive tackle Jordan van den Berg, the growing injury concerns in the secondary, and a potentially important contract decision involving D'Andre Swift.The Bears failed to score a touchdown, converted just 2-of-14 third downs and committed 11 penalties in a frustrating night in Cincinnati.Caleb Williams and Chicago's starting offense only played one 10-play series. Williams finished 2-of-5 for 28 yards, connecting with Rome Odunze and Colston Loveland before the drive stalled and ended with a field goal. The starting unit wasn't spectacular, but it also wasn't the biggest problem of the night.That distinction belongs to LEFT TACKLE.
