The Chicago Bears are gearing up for the start of spring workouts, and they’ve welcomed a handful of new players to the roster via free agency and the NFL draft.
During free agency, the Bears made waves acquiring wide receiver Keenan Allen, as well as interior offensive lineman Ryan Bates, via trade. They also added running back D’Andre Swift, safety Kevin Byard, tight end Gerald Everett and safety Jonathan Owens.
Recently, Chicago welcomed five new rookies to the fold, including a star quarterback-wide receiver duo in Caleb Williams and Rome Odunze. They also added offensive tackle Kiran Amegadjie, punter Tory Taylor and defensive end Austin Booker.
After previously releasing uniform numbers for their new rookies, the Bears have now shared new jersey numbers for returning and new veterans. We’ve compiled them all below:
