Colston Loveland and Caleb Williams forged a strong bond on and off the field. The tight end joined the Chicago Bears last season as the No. 10 pick and immediately established himself as a reliable weapon for the star quarterback.

Their partnership contributed to the team’s success in 2025. Loveland recorded 58 receptions for 713 yards and six touchdowns, while Williams completed 330-of-568 passes for 3,942 yards and 27 touchdowns. They will both play key roles again next season in Chicago’s quest for a deeper playoff run.

The Bears won the NFC North with an 11-6 record and reached the Divisional Round before the Los Angeles Rams defeated them 20-17 in overtime. Williams, Loveland and Co. will look to achieve more in the upcoming campaign.

Williams’ impressive 2025 season and the Bears’ exciting play style likely influenced his selection. The team executed several late-game comebacks that garnered significant attention from the football world.
