Olamide Zaccheaus caught 1-of-2 targets for nine yards in the Bears' Divisional round loss to the Rams.
Zaccheaus signed a one-year deal with the Bears this offseason and wound up being a thorn in the side of Luther Burden's fantasy managers for the first half of the season. The veteran receiver occupied his normal role in the slot early in the year, but later saw more work on the outside. Zaccheaus caught 39 passes for 313 yards and two touchdowns in the regular season, and finished the year with the third most routes run (335) of any Bears receiver, per PFF. Whether he's back with the Bears in 2026 or playing elsewhere, Zaccheaus seems destined to play out the rest of his career on one-year deals and will likely ink another deal similar to his current one this offseason.

DJ Moore: Scores early TD in playoff loss
Moore hauled in five of eight targets for 52 yards and a touchdown while adding eight yards on one rush attempt in Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss to the Rams.

Rome Odunze caught 2-of-6 targets for 44 yards in the Bears' Divisional round loss to the Rams.
Despite making some obvious strides in his development in his second season, Odunze still has a way to go if he hopes to look like a player worthy of the No. 9 overall pick the Bears used to draft him in 2024. Were it not for five games missed due to injury, Odunze would likely have been looking at a career-year in 2025. Instead, his 44 receptions and 661 receiving yards both fell below his rookie line of 54-734-3 from last season. Depending on what happens with DJ Moore this offseason, Odunze could have a chance to see an increased role in 2026. Of course, he'll also be battling with second-year players Luther Burden and Colston Loveland, who made notable strides of their own late in the season. Odunze will likely settle in somewhere as a low-end WR2/high-end WR3 in fantasy drafts next season, but could turn into a nice value if he's able to take another step in his third season.

DJ Moore caught 5-of-8 targets for 52 yards and a touchdown in the Bears' Divisional round loss to the Rams.
Moore came up clutch in the second quarter when he hauled in a three-yard score on fourth-and-goal from the Rams' three-yard line. Moore's most notable play, however, may have come in overtime, when he appeared to pull up on a route while being targeted by Caleb Williams, which resulted in an easy interception for the defense that eventually led to a game-winning field goal by Harrison Mevis seven plays later. Moore saw his numbers dip drastically in 2025. His 50 receptions marked a new career low, as did his 682 receiving yards, but he still managed to find the end zone six times. The veteran receiver will be 29 at the start of next season and is under contract through the 2029 season. Despite his decreased role, Moore carries a dead cap hit just north of $35 million, so any idea of releasing him is likely off the table. That said, he could prove expendable this offseason if the team likes how Rome Odunze and Luther Burden are developing, which means a trade could be on the table for another team looking to upgrade the position. Moore's situation will be one to monitor as the Bears consider their options this offseason and where he fits in their plans.

Kyle Monangai rushed 13 times for 36 yards in the Bears' Divisional round loss to the Rams, adding four receptions for 36 additional yards.
Monangai's strong rookie season officially comes to an end. The seventh-rounder didn't waste any time working his way into the Bears' running back rotation last offseason, and popped up to rush for 169-783-5 as a rookie. Monangai's 18 receptions for 164 yards could hint at increased usage in the passing game next season, and he also saw four or more targets in three of his final five games this season -- including Sunday's playoff game. While it seems unlikely he'll be usurping D'Andre Swift on the running back depth chart next season, Monangai is clearly playing the "David Montgomery role" in Ben Johnson's offense and thrived in that role in his rookie campaign. While it's too early to say he'll have any standalone value in 2026 fantasy leagues, Monangai is undoubtedly one of the top handcuffing options at the position next season.

Ben Johnson: Thought about going for two, liked our chances in OT better
Bears head coach Ben Johnson opted to kick an extra point to tie the Rams with 18 seconds left in regulation on Sunday night and he was asked about that decision in his postgame press conference.

D'Andre Swift rushed 19 times for 76 yards in the Bears' Divisional round loss to the Rams.
Swift did not see a target in this one, as all the passing-down work instead went to rookie Kyle Monangai. Swift's season ends with a regular-season rushing line of 223-1,087-9, marking the second time in his career that he has surpassed 1,000 yards in a season. Operating as the "lightning" to Kyle Monangai's "thunder," Swift was a key player in head coach Ben Johnson's two-man committee approach, and wound up leading the bears in carries, rushing yards, and rushing touchdowns. Still under contract through next season, Swift should be back with the Bears but could be at risk of seeing more of a split backfield with Monangai likely poised for a bigger role in his second season.

Blake Corum rushed six times for 19 yards in the Rams' Divisional round win over the Bears.
Corum has been a fairly safe bet to see double-digit touches this season, but the second-year back was held to just six carries on Sunday and has now seen that total twice in his last three games. The fact that he averaged a meager 3.2 YPC on those carries gave even greater reason for the Rams not trust him too much in Sunday's do-or-die game. Corum could see his volume bounce back in next weeks Conference Championship road game against the Seahawks, but we would expect Kyren Williams to continue to handle the majority of the work after back-to-back solid performances this post season.
