Offensive line competition
What to watch
With starting left tackle Braxton Jones still recovering from a broken fibula, the Bears have a key battle unfolding on the offensive line.
Kiran Amegadjie, entering his second year after being drafted in the third round in 2024, is competing with rookie Ozzy Trapilo, a second-round pick. Coaches are expected to give both players significant reps early in camp.

Defensive edge depth
The Bears also have an open competition for snaps at defensive end.
Second-year edge rusher Austin Booker, who showed flashes last season, is trying to earn more playing time. He’s competing with Daniel Hardy, a more experienced player best known for a punt block against the Titans in Week 1 of last season.
