On March 26, the Chicago Bears fell for Titan, Colston Loveland right away at Michigan's pro-day, drafting him 10th overall in the 20, 25 NFL draft. As a rookie, he led the team with 7-13 receiving yards and 6 touchdowns, forming a strong bond with quarterback Caleb Williams. That powered key wins. Ben Johnson and General Manager Ryan Poles were impressed when Loveland compared his style to Detroit Lion star San LaPorta, and they agreed he was, special from that chat. Fans in Chicago quickly embraced the nickname, third, and Colston, coined by safety Kevin Byard for Loveland's NACC for getting open on crucial third, downs and late game plays. Loveland revealed they couldn't train together in the summer, so starting in week four, he and William stayed late after practices to drill routes. Even ones that clicked during team sessions, that trust showed in the playoffs where Loveland exploded for 137 yards on 8 catches from 15 targets in the wildcard.
Went over the Green Bay Packers, proving their extra work pays off big. Stay locked in with NFL News Today, AI, Powered Updates. I'm Corey with The Story.
