Locked On Bears - Daily Podcast On The Chicago Bears

The Chicago Bears still don't have an Illinois stadium bill after the state legislature convened its session without a deal in place, leaving the process in limbo once again.

Ben Johnson's emphasis on Caleb Williams' completion percentage is more about the offensive operation as a whole than just the quarterback's accuracy.

The 70 percent mark is a goal to strive for, not the expectation or the threshold for success/failure.

Ben Johnson says he's buying stock in Luther Burden at Chicago Bears OTAs, and for good reason. But that doesn't mean Rome Odunze is going to fall behind.

The Chicago Bears worked out free agent edge rusher A.J. Epenesa right as trade rumors started heating up around Josh Sweat of the Arizona Cardinals.
