Bradbury’s Stunning Dribble Secures Lament-Free Win for Team!

The Chicago Bears had one of the best offensive lines in the NFL last season, but things are going to look a little different in 2026 following a key injury and a shocking retirement. After Pro Bowler Drew Dalman announced his surprising retirement after just five NFL seasons, the Bears quickly pivoted to acquire center Garrett Bradbury in a trade with the New England Patriots, sending a 2027 fifth-rounder in the deal. Bradbury is fresh off working with a young quarterback in Drake Maye, so the transition to Caleb Williams should be a familiar one.

Bradbury, a former first-round pick in 2019, has NFC North experience having started his career with the Minnesota Vikings, where he played for six years before being released in 2024 and signing with New England. It also helps that Bradbury will be familiar with his new left guard Joe Thuney, as the pair played together at North Carolina State for two seasons, and Chicago's new center couldn't help but gush about the All-Pro left guard. “Spent two years with Joe in college.

He's a stud," Bradbury said. "I think everyone in college knew when he left college what kind of player he was, and no one was surprised by the success he's had. It blows my mind that that two teams have let that guy walk out of the building.

He's just a special guy. He's a pro, he handles everything the right way. He's a good leader.
