Chicago Bears Key Players 2026
Caleb Williams
QuarterbackTook a massive step forward in Year 2 under Ben Johnson, throwing for 3,942 yards with 27 touchdowns and just seven interceptions. Now with the same play caller in consecutive seasons for the first time since college, Williams’ MVP odds sit at +1400 at BUSR.
Rome Odunze
Wide ReceiverBattled a foot injury that limited his sophomore production, but steps into the WR1 role following the DJ Moore trade. A full recovery and expanded role make him a genuine breakout candidate in 2026.
Luther Burden III
Wide ReceiverEmerged as a key target in his rookie season and now moves into the No. 2 receiver role behind Odunze, with significant expectations for a second-year leap.
Colston Loveland
Tight EndEmerged as a top target in Ben Johnson’s offense during his rookie season, giving Williams a reliable safety valve and red zone weapon entering his second year.
Dillon Thieneman
Safety, First-Round PickPairs with free agent addition Coby Bryant to form a new-look safety tandem, addressing a defensive backfield that saw significant turnover this offseason.
Devin Bush
Linebacker, Free Agency AdditionJoins the Bears in free agency to bolster a linebacker corps that lost Tremaine Edmunds, giving defensive coordinator Dennis Allen more speed and versatility at the position.
Chicago Bears 2026 Season Preview
The 2026 Bears are trying to prove last season was no fluke. Ben Johnson’s first year as head coach produced an 11-6 record, an NFC North title and the franchise’s first playoff win since 2010, and Chicago now enters the season with genuinely lofty expectations for the first time in years.
An 11-6 finish and an NFC North title validated the hiring of Ben Johnson, who also helped Caleb Williams take a significant developmental leap. Chicago won its first playoff game since 2010 before losing in the Divisional Round.
Chicago traded veteran receiver DJ Moore to Buffalo for a 2026 second-round pick, sending a fifth-rounder back to Buffalo in the deal. The move saves roughly $16.5 million in cap space and hands the WR1 role to Rome Odunze.
OT Jedrick Wills Jr. (FA), C Garrett Bradbury (FA, replacing retired Drew Dalman), LB Devin Bush (FA), S Coby Bryant (FA), S Dillon Thieneman (Draft, Rd 1), WR Kalif Raymond and WR Scotty Miller (both FA) add receiving depth behind the young core.
Beyond the DJ Moore trade, Chicago lost center Drew Dalman to retirement, along with depth pieces including LB Tremaine Edmunds, S Kevin Byard III, S Jaquan Brisker and S C.J. Gardner-Johnson in free agency.
Williams enters his second straight season with Ben Johnson calling plays, a first since college. Odunze, Burden and Loveland give him a young, ascending group of weapons, though the receiving corps carries some unproven depth behind the top three.
Dennis Allen returns as defensive coordinator with a retooled safety group led by rookie Dillon Thieneman and free agent Coby Bryant, plus added linebacker depth in Devin Bush after significant secondary turnover this offseason.
Chicago’s breakthrough 2025 season earns real respect at +2500 for the Super Bowl, but the win total at 9.5 with the Under favored at -127 reflects some regression caution after trading away a proven veteran receiver. Best bet: track Rome Odunze’s health and target share closely in the season’s opening weeks before betting the win total.
How to Bet the Chicago Bears in 2026
Every Bears bet at BUSR falls into one of these core markets. Here is how each one works with real 2026 Bears examples.
The Bears are assigned a number reflecting how much better or worse they are than the opponent. If Chicago is -3, they must win by 4 or more. If +3, they can lose by up to 3 and still cover.
Pick the Bears to win outright with no spread. Negative means Chicago is favored. Positive means they are the underdog and a $100 bet wins more than $100.
Bet on the combined score of both teams. No individual team performance matters, only the final combined score against the posted number.
Bet on Bears season-long outcomes. Super Bowl winner, NFC winner, win total, individual awards. Odds are longest now and shorten as Chicago wins games.
Combine two or more Bears bets into one ticket for a bigger payout. All legs must win. A Bears spread plus a Caleb Williams passing yards Over is a classic same-game parlay.
Bet on an individual Bears player’s performance in a single game. Most popular: Williams passing yards, Odunze receiving yards, Loveland receiving yards, Burden receptions.

Chicago Bears Player Props 2026
The most popular Chicago Bears player prop markets at BUSR.ag for the 2026 season, with sharp angles on each.
| Player | Prop Market | Sharp Angle |
|---|---|---|
| Caleb Williams | Passing Yards O/U | Coming off a 3,942-yard breakout season with a 27-7 touchdown-to-interception ratio. His second straight year with Ben Johnson should mean an even more comfortable command of the offense. |
| Rome Odunze | Receiving Yards O/U | Now the clear WR1 following the DJ Moore trade. His health after a foot injury is the key variable, so monitor the injury report before targeting his weekly Over. |
| Luther Burden III | Receptions O/U | Moves into the No. 2 receiver role after a promising rookie season. High-floor volume expected as defenses focus coverage on Odunze. |
| Colston Loveland | Receiving Yards O/U | Emerged as a key target during his rookie campaign. Expect continued growth as a red zone weapon and safety valve for Williams in year two. |
| Dillon Thieneman | Tackles + Passes Defended O/U | The rookie first-rounder is expected to see significant early playing time in a retooled secondary, making his props worth tracking from Week 1. |
| Devin Bush | Tackles O/U | First season in Chicago after signing in free agency. Expect a significant role given the linebacker turnover this offseason. |
