Leading up to the 2025 NFL Draft, the Chicago Bears were frequently mentioned as a landing spot for Ashton Jeanty. Of course, Jeanty wasn\u2019t available by the time the Bears were on the clock with the 10th pick in the first round.<\/p>\n
The Bears did waited until the seventh round before finally addressing the position by selecting Kyle Monangai with the 223rd overall pick, yet that could signal a bigger move coming in free agency. According to 92.3 The Fan\u2019s Ken Carman<\/a>, the Bears are \u201cvery serious\u201d about signing four-time Pro Bowl running back Nick Chubb.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Browns want to bring Nick Chubb back. They are trying hard to bring Nick back. I know this. The Bears are very serious about bringing him in and are trying to make this push.\u201d<\/p>\n Ken Carman on Nick Chubb\/Chicago Bears<\/p>\n Despite being one of the most productive running backs in the past decade, Chubb remains without a team since his contract expired at the conclusion of the 2024 season as the Browns limped to a 3-14 finish.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Chubb played just eight games last season after playing in just two in 2023, but he had four consecutive 1,000-yard rushing years before his injuries took a toll. Still, if he can return to health following a torn MCL and damaged ACL, perhaps Chubb can pick back up where he left off as one of the NFL\u2019s best running backs.<\/p>\n
