The Chicago Bears have made a splash in the offseason by signing first-round pick Colston Loveland to a four-year contract, with a fifth-year option. Loveland, valued for his versatility and skill at tight end, was drafted 10th overall. After a successful junior year at Michigan, where he recorded 56 receptions for 582 yards and five touchdowns, he is recovering from shoulder surgery but is expected to contribute significantly to the Bears' offense.

In addition to Loveland, the Bears have finalized contracts with four of their Day 3 draft picks: Ruben Hyppolite, Zah Frazier, Luke Newman, and Kyle Monangai. All of these players are anticipated to participate in the upcoming rookie camp, signaling a commitment to building a competitive roster under new head coach Ben Johnson and general manager Ryan Poles.
