Davenport Visit Sparks Defense Push | Chicago News

The Bears are eyeing a familiar edge rusher to fix their pass rush woes—Marcus Davenport, a former 14th overall pick with ties to both Dennis Allen and Ben Johnson, is back in the picture despite recent struggles. While his sack numbers have dipped and PFF ranked him low last year, his pedigree and connections could make him a compelling fit. On the injury front, Montez Sweat and Braxton Jones are trending upward, but Kyle Monangai’s knee issue adds concern. Offensively, Caleb Williams missed a clutch TD pass in practice—a reminder that the offense still needs refinement. With Monday off, the focus remains squarely on building a dominant defensive line, whether through Davenport or another move.
