The Chicago Bears made a significant move by selecting cornerback Zah Frazier in the fifth round of the NFL Draft. Standing at 6'3" with impressive 32⅞-inch arms, Frazier brings the size that NFL teams covet, especially in a position that's increasingly reliant on physicality. His journey through Southern Illinois and Coffeyville Community College to UTSA, where he finally became a starter, culminated in a breakout season with six interceptions in 2024.

Although cornerback isn't a pressing need for the Bears with a solidified secondary featuring names like Jaylon Johnson and Kyler Gordon, Frazier's potential to develop into a reliable contributor is what excites the coaching staff. The Bears are banking on his physical attributes and the mentorship of cornerbacks coach Al Harris, who sees Frazier as a future star in the making.
