The 2025 Chicago Bears are a team in transition — and full of promise. With offensive mastermind Ben Johnson at the helm and Caleb Williams entering his second NFL season, all eyes are on the offense this summer. The Bears may not boast superstars like those Johnson had in Detroit, but they have a solid foundation and exciting young talent to develop.
Here’s a look at one key offensive player to watch at every position group during Bears training camp in 2025.
Quarterback: Caleb Williams
The future of the Chicago Bears rides on Caleb Williams. After a promising rookie season, expectations are sky-high for the former No. 1 overall pick. His development under Ben Johnson will dictate how far the Bears can go in 2025. If Williams makes the leap into stardom, Chicago might finally break their long-standing quarterback curse. Training camp will offer a glimpse into how much he has grown — mentally, physically, and as a leader.
Running Back: Kyle Monangai
Though veterans D’Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson are expected to lead the backfield, rookie Kyle Monangai could shake things up. Selected in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft, Monangai brings power and agility, and he has the upside to challenge for a larger role. A strong showing in camp and preseason games could quickly elevate him up the depth chart.
Wide Receiver: Rome Odunze
While most of the spotlight will be on DJ Moore and rookie Luther Burden III, second-year wideout Rome Odunze could quietly steal the show. He’s flashed elite potential, and his connection with Caleb Williams continues to improve. Odunze could emerge as the Bears’ true WR1 by the end of camp — making his reps must-watch moments this summer.
Tight End: Colston Loveland
First-round pick Colston Loveland missed the offseason program due to shoulder surgery, but he’s set to make his training camp debut. The rookie tight end brings size, athleticism, and big-play potential to an offense expected to use heavy 12 personnel sets with Cole Kmet. Loveland’s adjustment to the pro level and chemistry with Williams will be under the microscope.
Offensive Line: Ozzy Trapilo
The Bears revamped their offensive line this offseason, and the biggest battle lies at left tackle. Rookie Ozzy Trapilo has already made waves during OTAs and will compete with Braxton Jones and Kiran Amegadjie for the starting job. Trapilo’s footwork, strength, and adaptability could earn him the starting nod and protect Williams’ blind side.
Final Thoughts
With Ben Johnson calling the plays and young stars ready to take center stage, Chicago Bears training camp 2025 promises plenty of intrigue. From quarterback to left tackle, every offensive position has a player who could help redefine the Bears’ identity. If this group gels and progresses during camp, the Bears could be on the verge of something special this fall.
