Amegadjie’s Comeback Begins | Chicago News

Kiran Amegadjie, the Bears’ third-round rookie tackle, made his preseason debut after nearly a year away from meaningful football, splitting reps with veteran Jedrick Wills Jr. while Braxton Jones recovers. Despite missing most of last season with an elbow injury, Amegadjie says he’s healthy and focused on consistency, crediting time on the field as his path to improvement. He faced tough pass rushers like Jared Verse and Julian Okwara, showing flashes of strong run blocking but acknowledging room to grow in pass protection. Coach Ben Johnson noted the evaluation is still early, but Amegadjie remains confident, driven, and laser-focused on mastering his craft — refusing to let past setbacks define his future.
