The Chicago Bears are about to get one of their biggest tests of training camp when they hit the field with the Cincinnati Bengals for joint practice.On today's episode of Chicago Bears Central, Haize breaks down the biggest things Bears fans need to watch as Ben Johnson's team finally gets the opportunity to measure itself against somebody other than its own teammates.Johnson has made it clear that he places significant value on joint practices as an evaluation tool, and with competition still raging throughout the roster, the next two weeks could go a long way toward determining who earns a spot on the final 53-man roster.And the matchups are LOADED.

The Chicago Bears turned up the intensity on Day 14 of training camp—and Caleb Williams finished practice exactly how Bears fans wanted to see.On today's episode of Chicago Bears Central, Haize breaks down everything coming out of another eventful practice at Halas Hall as the Bears prepare for their upcoming joint practice with the Cincinnati Bengals.The offense ended the day on a high note, with Caleb Williams leading a successful two-minute situation and finishing the drive with a 21-yard touchdown to Jahdae Walker.And Walker continues making his case for a legitimate offensive role.With Luther Burden III sidelined, Walker has received additional first-team opportunities and continues taking advantage of them—both as a receiver and on special teams.But he wasn't the only Bears receiver making noise.

The Chicago Bears have some VERY interesting roster decisions coming after their dominant 34-10 preseason win over the Cleveland Browns—and they just got another massive boost with Ozzy Trapilo returning to the practice field.On today's episode of Chicago Bears Central, Haize breaks down the biggest Bears storylines coming out of the weekend, starting with Ozzy Trapilo being activated from the PUP list just seven months after suffering a ruptured patellar tendon.Trapilo participated in individual drills Sunday but has not yet returned to full team work, meaning Chicago will continue taking a cautious approach as he ramps back up. His return adds another fascinating wrinkle to a left-tackle competition already featuring Braxton Jones, Kiran Amegadjie and Jedrick Wills Jr.There was also a scare involving Kyle Monangai, who injured his right knee after getting tangled up with Grady Jarrett during practice. The encouraging early news is that Monangai is believed to be fine and initial testing showed the knee to be structurally sound, with an MRI planned to confirm the diagnosis.Then we have to talk about what happened against Cleveland.The Bears fell behind 10-0 before scoring 34 unanswered points to win 34-10, and several roster-bubble players turned the preseason opener into their personal showcase.

The Chicago Bears are preparing for their first preseason game against the Cleveland Browns—and Ben Johnson just revealed a major part of the plan.On today's episode of Chicago Bears Central, Haize breaks down everything coming out of Day 13 of Bears training camp, including the decision to sit Caleb Williams and several other starters against Cleveland.Ben Johnson says he simply doesn't need to see Caleb in preseason action because he watches him compete every day in practice and believes the Bears' franchise quarterback will be ready for Week 1.That means Tyson Bagent gets the start against Cleveland, with Case Keenum and Miller Moss expected to handle the second half.But the bigger story may be what that extra playing time means for Chicago's younger players.

Is the Kyler Gordon situation becoming a legitimate problem for the Chicago Bears?On today's episode of Chicago Bears Central, Haize dives into a report from 104.3 The Score's Adam Hoge suggesting frustration may be building inside Halas Hall over Gordon's continued absence.Gordon began training camp on the PUP list while dealing with a soft-tissue issue, and Hoge compared the vibe surrounding his extended absence to the frustration that eventually developed around Nate Davis.That doesn't mean a trade is coming—but with Malik Muhammad emerging at nickel and Chicago already dealing with major secondary injuries, Gordon's status is becoming increasingly important.

The Chicago Bears may finally be getting some encouraging injury news—and several young defenders are beginning to make serious noise at training camp.On today's episode of Chicago Bears Central, Haize reacts to an intriguing update surrounding offensive tackle Ozzy Trapilo. After suffering a ruptured patellar tendon during Chicago's Wild Card victory over Green Bay, Trapilo had been expected to miss most of the 2026 season. But Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer offered an encouraging update from Bears camp, saying Trapilo “might be back sooner than expected.”That could become extremely important for a Bears left-tackle room currently dealing with uncertainty. Braxton Jones has missed multiple practices, while Jedrick Wills Jr. and Kiran Amegadjie have rotated with the first-team offense.Then we get to Caleb Williams.Veteran defensive tackle Grady Jarrett says Caleb's biggest improvement has been his command of the offense, command of the huddle and growing confidence. After taking a significant step last season and leading the league with six fourth-quarter comebacks, Williams appears to be entering camp with an entirely different level of control.Haize also dives into two young defensive players beginning to force their way into bigger conversations.

Matt Spiegel and Laurence Holmes were joined by Score football analyst Dave Wannstedt to share his observations from Bears training camp.

The Chicago Bears just completed their most physical—and possibly most chaotic—training camp practice yet.On today's episode of Chicago Bears Central, Haize breaks down everything from Day 8 at Halas Hall, where the pads came back on, the intensity reached another level and multiple players left practice with injuries.The biggest concerns involved Braxton Jones and Montez Sweat. Jones exited after battling Austin Booker during one-on-one drills, while Sweat later removed himself after slowing up during an 11-on-11 rep. The encouraging news is that both were able to leave under their own power, and the early indications in these notes suggest neither injury appears significant.But the injuries did not stop there. Dallis Flowers suffered a non-contact right-leg injury, while Gervarrius Owens injured his left leg during special teams, creating even more pressure on an already depleted Bears secondary.

The Chicago Bears offense is already giving the defense problems at training camp—and Caleb Williams may be taking another major step forward.On today's episode of Chicago Bears Central, Haize breaks down all the biggest developments from Day 2 at Halas Hall, beginning with one of Caleb Williams' strongest practices since arriving in Chicago. Williams reportedly played fast, spread the football around, completed well over 70% of his passes and consistently generated chunk plays while operating Ben Johnson's offense with confidence.The biggest play came when Williams connected with veteran receiver Kalif Raymond for a 54-yard touchdown during 11-on-11 work. Raymond was one of the clear winners of practice, showing off his speed, route running and growing chemistry with Chicago's quarterbacks.But Raymond was not the only weapon making noise. Rome Odunze continued to look explosive, Luther Burden III flashed as a route runner and after the catch, and Colston Loveland delivered one of the catches of the day on a diving reception. The Bears may have assembled one of the NFL's deepest and most versatile collections of offensive weapons.Haize also examines the other major training-camp developments:

Chicago Bears training camp is officially underway, and Day 1 already gave fans plenty to talk about.On today's episode of Chicago Bears Central, Haize breaks down the biggest takeaways from the Bears' first practice of training camp, including the nickel cornerback battle with Kyler Gordon sidelined. With Gordon on the PUP list, Jaylon Jones got the first crack with the starters, while Josh Blackwell, Malik Muhammad and Cam Lewis also rotated into the slot. Gordon still has to earn back trust and dependability after another injury setback, making nickel corner one of the most interesting battles of camp.Haize also dives into the left tackle competition, where Braxton Jones worked with the first-team offense to open camp. With Ozzy Trapilo expected to miss most of the season, Jones appears to have the early edge, but Jedrick Wills Jr., Theo Benedet and Kiran Amegadjie remain in the mix.The Bears' young offensive weapons also made noise, with Rome Odunze, Luther Burden III and Colston Loveland standing out early. Burden reportedly looked quick, twitchy and active both inside and outside, while Loveland showed natural hands and route-running versatility.Plus, Garrett Bradbury opened camp as the first-team center, Dennis Allen brought back his defensive up-down challenge, the punt return battle between Kalif Raymond and Zavion Thomas heated up, and Montez Sweat was activated off the non-football illness list after just one day.Finally, Caleb Williams had major praise for Colston Loveland, saying he can become the best tight end in the league — and maybe already is. Haize reacts to what that means for Ben Johnson's offense and why Loveland could be one of the Bears' biggest breakout stars in 2026.Topics include: Chicago Bears training camp, Bears Day 1 takeaways, Kyler Gordon injury, Jaylon Jones nickel corner, Malik Muhammad, Cam Lewis, Braxton Jones, Jedrick Wills Jr., Garrett Bradbury, Logan Jones, Luther Burden III, Rome Odunze, Colston Loveland, Caleb Williams, Montez Sweat, Dennis Allen, Zavion Thomas, Kalif Raymond, Chicago Bears Central.Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/ChiBearsCentralGet at us:Email: ChicagoBearsCentral@gmail.comTwitter:@ChiBearsCentralPhone: ‪(773) 242-9336‬Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The Chicago Bears opened training camp with major storylines, and Ryan Poles did not hold back when discussing Kyler Gordon's injury situation. Gordon is starting camp on the PUP list with a calf injury, and Poles made it clear that Gordon will have to earn back trust and dependability once he returns to the field. Ben Johnson's message was simple: “Get healthy.”On today's episode of Chicago Bears Central, Haize breaks down the biggest report day takeaways from Halas Hall, including the encouraging update on T.J. Edwards, who is not expected to miss much time, and the latest on a potential Darnell Wright contract extension after Ryan Poles said Wright is a player the Bears want in Chicago long-term.Haize also dives into Caleb Williams' Year 3 expectations, where Ben Johnson praised his elite arm talent, playmaking, escapability and “Superman cape” ability — while still emphasizing the need for more consistency over a full 60-minute game. Plus, Ben Johnson says the 70% completion goal for Caleb “always will be” the standard.The show also covers the left tackle battle between Braxton Jones, Jedrick Wills Jr., Theo Benedet and Kiran Amegadjie, plus the growing excitement around Luther Burden III, who Ryan Poles praised for his offseason growth, passion and drive to become the best receiver he can be.Finally, Haize reacts to Montez Sweat being placed on the non-football illness list and Elijah Hicks landing on PUP, while also reviewing the broader Bears injury picture heading into camp.Topics include: Chicago Bears training camp, Kyler Gordon injury, Ryan Poles, Ben Johnson, Caleb Williams, Darnell Wright contract extension, Luther Burden III breakout, Montez Sweat NFI list, Elijah Hicks PUP list, T.J. Edwards injury update, Bears left tackle battle, Chicago Bears Central.Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/ChiBearsCentralGet at us:Email: ChicagoBearsCentral@gmail.comTwitter:@ChiBearsCentralPhone: ‪(773) 242-9336‬Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The Chicago Bears are entering 2026 with real playoff expectations — and while Caleb Williams is the face of the franchise, the Bears' non-QB MVP might be right tackle Darnell Wright.On today's episode of Chicago Bears Central, Haize breaks down why Wright has become one of the most important players on the roster after earning second-team All-Pro honors and helping power one of the NFL's best rushing attacks. With Darnell Wright entering the final year of his rookie deal, could a massive contract extension be coming soon?Haize also dives into the three things the Bears must get right to get over the playoff hump: eliminating slow starts, stabilizing the left tackle position, and raising the standard from simply making the playoffs to reaching the NFC Championship Game. After winning the NFC North, beating the Packers in the Wild Card Round and falling short against the Rams, the Bears are no longer just trying to be good — they are trying to become championship-caliber.Plus, Joe Thuney lands at No. 49 in the NFL Top 100 after another First-Team All-Pro season, proving the Bears' offensive line is finally getting national respect. Haize breaks down what Thuney's presence means for Caleb Williams, the run game and the overall identity of Ben Johnson's offense.Finally, we look at the Bears' roster bubble heading into training camp, including Miller Moss, Roschon Johnson, Coleman Bennett, Scotty Miller, Kiran Amegadjie, Caden Barnett, Noah Sewell, Keyshaun Elliott, Skyler Thomas and more.Topics include: Chicago Bears, Darnell Wright, Caleb Williams, Joe Thuney, Bears offensive line, Bears playoff expectations, Bears training camp, Bears roster bubble, Braxton Jones, Jedrick Wills Jr., Ben Johnson offense, NFC North, Chicago Bears Central.Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/ChiBearsCentralGet at us:Email: ChicagoBearsCentral@gmail.comTwitter:@ChiBearsCentralPhone: ‪(773) 242-9336‬Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The Chicago Bears are opening training camp, and every position group has a major question to answer before the 2026 season kicks off.On today's episode of Chicago Bears Central, Haize breaks down one burning training camp question at every position. Can Caleb Williams take the leap into elite quarterback territory after being ranked among the NFL's top players? Can D'Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai lead the run game while Roschon Johnson fights to keep his RB3 spot? Are Rome Odunze and Luther Burden III ready to take over as the Bears' top two wide receivers after the DJ Moore trade?The show also dives into the future of Cole Kmet, the left tackle battle with Braxton Jones, Jedrick Wills Jr. and Theo Benedet, and whether the Bears' defensive front can finally give Montez Sweat enough help. Can Dayo Odeyingbo or Austin Booker step up? Will Grady Jarrett bounce back? Can the linebackers stay healthy with T.J. Edwards dealing with a minor injury update?Haize also reacts to CBS Sports calling Caleb Williams overrated heading into 2026. Is the criticism fair because of his completion percentage and playoff turnovers, or are people ignoring the clutch gene, the franchise-record production and the fact that Caleb has already shown traits only elite quarterbacks have?Plus, the episode looks at the new-look secondary with Tyrique Stevenson, Malik Muhammad, Coby Bryant and Dillon Thieneman, and why this Bears training camp could reveal whether Chicago is truly ready to defend its NFC North crown.Topics include: Chicago Bears training camp, Caleb Williams overrated, Bears 2026 preview, Rome Odunze, Luther Burden III, Cole Kmet trade rumors, Braxton Jones, Bears left tackle battle, Austin Booker, Dayo Odeyingbo, Grady Jarrett, T.J.

The Chicago Bears are heading into training camp with bigger expectations than they have had in years. After an 11-6 season, an NFC North title and their first playoff win since 2010, Ben Johnson's team now has to prove it can take another step in 2026.

The Chicago Bears are heading into 2026 training camp with real expectations, real pressure, and several roster battles that could get ruthless fast. On today's episode of Chicago Bears Central, Haize breaks down six Bears position battles that could shape the final 53-man roster, including RB3, WR3, CB2, left tackle, center, and the backup defensive tackle rotation.Can Braxton Jones hold off Jedrick Wills Jr. and Theo Benedet at left tackle? Is Logan Jones ready to push Garrett Bradbury at center? Could Malik Muhammad threaten Tyrique Stevenson for the CB2 role?
