THE DAILY SPONGIE SPECIAL
BEARSSSSSS
Jackson went to the Rams last year on a major free-agent deal thinking it was a new chapter in his career, only for it to essentially end two weeks into the season. After landing with the Bears, though, he feels “everything fell in the right place.”
Bears head coach Ben Johnson: QB Caleb Williams ‘just as natural’ under center as in the shotgun - Chicago Sun-Times
Ask Johnson about putting Williams center in the preseason game Sunday against the Bills, and he’ll point to a play that decidedly didn’t work.
Bears CB Terell Smith out for season after knee injury in preseason game vs. Bills - Chicago Sun-Times
Smith was among three players competing for the starting cornerback spot opposite Jaylon Johnson.
Bagent is the Bears’ second-stringer.
The second-year tackle has a chance to start, though he likely trails veteran Braxton Jones.
The starters are playing Friday at Kansas City, but Chicago Bears coach Ben Johnson needs to play it smart with some key defensive players missing.
Bagent’s extension solidifies his role as the primary backup to Caleb Williams and keeps him with Chicago through the 2027 season.
With an improved line, plenty of weapons and a proven play caller, Williams is being pushed to play point guard, not superhero.
Bears head coach Ben Johnson expressed his admiration for Chiefs head coach Andy Reid ahead of the teams meeting Friday evening in Kansas City in their preseason finale.
In numerous ways the percentages say the undrafted player in his second season can’t be an NFL starter but there are always exceptions to the longest odds.
The Bears on Wednesday signed veteran running back Royce Freeman and placed rookie running back Deion Hankins (quad) on season-ending injured reserve.
Backup quarterback Tyson Bagent and the Bears have agreed to a two-year contract extension worth $10 million, a source said Wednesday. The deal can reach $16 million with incentives.
On their show Wednesday, Mike Mulligan and David Haugh were joined by Tribune reporter Brad Biggs to discuss the latest Bears storylines, including how the roster is taking shape ahead of the preseason finale Friday against the Chiefs.
POLISH SAUSAGE
Man United legend Wes Brown and defender Luke Shaw hail soccer’s meteoric rise in America, praising world-class stadiums, top-notch facilities, and more.
Bullet struck wall 15 feet from where Reid was sitting.
Skyy Moore’s spot on the Chiefs’ roster was anything but guaranteed, but the wide receiver doesn’t have to wait until next week’s cutdown to find out his future.
KNOW THINE ENEMY
The Vikings traded defensive tackle Harrison Phillips and a 2027 seventh-round pick to the Jets on Wednesday, according to multiple reports.
