Trade idea has Bears landing disgruntled Jets star for pick and starter originally appeared on The Sporting News . Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here . The Chicago Bears have had an interesting offseason and are looking to improve upon what was a very successful first campaign for Ben Johnson.

Among the options that make sense for the Bears to pursue is New York Jets running back Breece Hall. Hall is reportedly available for the right price, though it remains uncertain if the Jets actually want to trade him. After not moving him at the deadline a year ago, New York has some interesting decisions to make, to say the least.

In a recent proposal, it feels like a deal that would be too good to pass up for Chicago. Sports Illustrated's Ryan Shea proposed a deal that would send Hall to the Bears for a third-round pick and D'Andre Swift. “The Chicago Bears would make this move to land a true offensive centerpiece in Breece Hall—something their offense has been missing.

Hall isn’t just a solid starter; he’s a home-run threat who can flip games with one touch, whether as a runner or receiver. "In a system led by Ben Johnson, that versatility becomes even more valuable. Johnson’s offenses are built on creativity, spacing, and getting playmakers into favorable matchups.
