Ben Johnson and the Chicago Bears continue to load up on offensive weapons. The Bears selected wide receiver Luther Burden III with the 39th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, giving quarterback Caleb Williams yet another target to work with in the passing game, and officially completing the 2023 blockbuster trade with the Carolina Panthers.
Burden, the talented pass catcher out of Missouri, was thought of as a first-round pick for much of the draft process.
