Insight that sticks with Ross Dellenger came from an editor at his first internship: “I can always teach somebody how to write. I can’t teach them how to report.”

Caleb Williams is the first Bear to be the main cover of Madden

Welp

BREAKING: Arlington Heights mayor a no-go on the Senate Bears legislation: "this is clearly a fumble for the State of Illinois," Mayor Jim Tinaglia says. Says they worked for five years to come to an agreement on PILOT fees. The future of the Bears in Illinois is clearly not looking bright.

Kevin Fishbain@kfishbain· Jun 1

If you want to remember some guys, here’s the Bears’ starting lineup in their first game after purchasing the Arlington Park property (a 24-14 win over the Lions, whose tight ends coach was Ben Johnson)

Kevin Fishbain@kfishbain· Jun 1

lol

“We will finalize our evaluation of both Arlington Heights and Hammond, and remain on the late spring/early summer timeline that we have previously communicated. We will provide an update when we have a decision to share.”

🎶This is the song that never ends🎶

BIG DEVELOPMENT: Cunningham tells us “the proposal that the Bears have put out there does not have the support to pass,” referring to the PILOT tool, and they’re “trying to figure out if there's another way to make sure the Bears build the stadium in Illinois without using that.”

Good stuff today from Bears special teams coordinator Richard Hightower on rookie Zavion Thomas

"I like his speed on tape. I like his natural instincts. I like his ability to catch the ball into traffic and his fearlessness. What he needs to do is just keep getting better. He's still young, it's still early. I mean, we'll see. But you've got a dynamic player that we like on special teams and we like on offense. This is a player that catches the ball, looks natural and he's been doing it his whole life and he's eager to be great. One of his first questions he asked me wasn't about when we started any of that kind of stuff. One of his first questions was, ‘Why, coach, do most rookies not succeed in the NFL? What holds people back?' So that told me right there about his mindset. I could go on and on about all of them. Keyshaun (Elliott) is the same way. I mean, they're all that way. Our scouting department did a phenomenal job vetting these guys."

Bears roster moves…RB swap, veteran safety added, and getting to have 91 players for the summer thanks to the international player exemption
