The Chicago Bears should be in the conversation for winners of the offseason as they dramatically improved their roster ahead of the 2024 NFL season.

Armed with the first overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, the Bears took USC quarterback Caleb Williams which gives them their cornerstone for the long-term.

However, they also made sure to give Williams weapons to work with as they also took Rome Odunze ninth overall, traded for Keenan Allen and signed D’Andre Swift in free agency.

There are also incumbent receiving options like DJ Moore and Cole Kmet, giving Williams a plethora of options in the passing game.

Not to be forgotten, the Bears also signed Gerald Everett who is slotted to operate as the backup tight end to Kmet.

Everett was placed on the NFL’s non-football injury list this past Friday, but was then activated off of it via Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic.

“The Bears are activating TE Gerald Everett off the non-football injury list,” Fishbain reported.

It looks like whatever issue Everett was dealing with was minor as he’s now set to report back to the team and practice during training camp.

An athletic tight end, Everett’s been a useful piece in the passing game at his previous stops and provides solid depth for a Chicago team looking to make some noise in 2024.

With Williams manning the offense, the Bears are projected to be a pass-first team which plays into their strengths given all the receiving talent on the roster.

While Everett might not have a large role, he can still help out Chicago as it develops Williams.

Bears Are Reportedly Doing ‘Serious Homework’ On 1 Coaching Candidate

(Photo by Jonathan Daniel/Getty Images)   The Chicago Bears are in need of some big changes after squandering a solid start to the 2024 NFL season, leading to the firing of head coach Matt Eberflus, the first time in franchise history they made a coaching change during a season. Interim head coach Thomas Brown hasn’t won a game, leading most to believe there is little chance he gets any consideration to be the permanent replacement. With that in mind, the Bears reportedly are looking into other possible candidates. “The Bears are looking for a ‘leader of men’ for their opening at HC, and GM Ryan Poles has been doing ‘serious homework’ on [Miami] Dolphins DC Anthony Weaver, per Dianna Russini,” JPAFootball wrote on X.

Lakers Given Notable Odds To Make NBA Finals

(Photo by Sam Hodde/Getty Images)   Because of their history and roster, the Los Angeles Lakers are always aiming to reach the NBA Finals. However, that is obviously much easier said than done. This year, the betting markets believe they have a chance of competing for a championship, but it’s not a huge one. According to Polymarket, the Lakers have an eight percent shot of going to the Finals. Even with some smart acquisitions and Luka Doncic starting his first full season with the team, the Lakers still have their work cut out for them.

Standout Packers RB Gets Nominated For Notable NFL Award

With Josh Jacobs out with a knee injury, someone would have to step up to lead the way against the Minnesota Vikings. Fortunately for them, backup RB Emanuel Wilson was more than up to the task. That’s why, after his strong performance, it’s not much of a surprise to see him being nominated for the FedEx Air and Ground Player of the Week: “Packers RB Emanuel Wilson (125 total yards, 2 TDs) is a nominee for the FedEx Air and Ground Players of the Week award in Week 12,” Kruse posted on X. #Packers RB Emanuel Wilson (125 total yards, 2 TDs) is a nominee for the FedEx Air and Ground Players of the Week award in Week 12. — Zach Kruse (@zachkruse2) November 24, 2025 Wilson was shifty and explosive out of the backfield. He forced missed tackles left and right, and he was a factor with his pass blocking and reliable hands in the passing game as well. It was a much-welcome per...
