Chicago Bears 2026 NFL Draft Target: Jordan Tyson

The Chicago Bears shocked the NFL when they took tight end Colston Loveland in the first round of last year’s draft. Cole Kmet was Chicago’s starting tight end and performed well enough for few to believe that the Bears considered the position as one of need.

However, the pick worked out incredibly well for the Bears. Loveland had 58 receptions for 713 yards and six touchdowns.

This year, Chicago does not have a particular need at wide receiver. Despite trading DJ Moore to the Buffalo Bills earlier this off-season, the Bears have Rome Odunze and Luther Burden as their projected starters. Presumably, they do not need to take a starting-caliber wide receiver early this year.

But they might shock the NFL again and do it anyway.

The Chicago Bears could select Jordan Tyson in the 2026 NFL Draft

According to Yahoo Sports, Arizona State wide receiver Jordan Tyson is a player that Chicago could select in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft if they want to add top talent to that position room:

“With an offensive-minded head coach calling the shots, could a player like Tyson truly be considered the ‘best player available’ if he were to fall to 25?

“This receiver class is tricky. While there are some fun names, especially at the top, there’s not one player who stands out as being the unquestioned WR1. To a certain extent, this is a ‘pick your flavor’ situation, but for Tyson, it’s much more health-related than anything else.”

With only four wide receivers on the depth chart, it is more than likely that Chicago will use a pick or two on the position during the draft. If they want to add one of the best ones, and if players they want at other positions are taken already, they could shift focus to Tyson at wide receiver.

Last year, he had 61 receptions for 711 yards and eight touchdowns. The year prior, though, he had 75 receptions for 1,101 yards and 10 touchdowns.
