Key Bears are dominating, showcasing elite talent. Identify the standout players making their case for Pro Bowl recognition before the voting deadline.
There is still plenty of time to vote for your favorite Chicago Bears players to make the Pro Bowl before the Dec. 15 deadline.
Chicago had just one player make the Pro Bowl last season, as cornerback Jaylon Johnson made his second consecutive appearance.
Johnson had two interceptions, 53 total tackles, seven TFLs and one forced fumble. Unfortunately, in 2025, he missed significant time due to a groin injury and played only his second game of the season on Friday, so the Pro Bowl is out of reach this year.
Chicago is having a much better season this time around at 9-3 and has a chance to have multiple players sent to the Pro Bowl.
Here are my picks for which Bears players are deserving of votes:
Kevin Byard
Even though Kevin Byard is in his 30s now, he is still playing at a high level.
The 32-year-old currently leads the NFL in interceptions (6) after snagging another one in Friday's 24-15 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. On top of that, he also has 65 total tackles, four TFLs and four passes defended.
Byard has two Pro Bowls under his belt, in 2017 and 2021, both with the Tennessee Titans. The veteran has done more than enough to earn a trip this year, in my opinion.
Joe Thuney
This one should be a no brainer.
Since he came into the league in 2016, he has only missed two games, which is an incredible feat. Those two games were during the 2022 season with the Kansas City Chiefs, when he suffered an ankle injury. However, he returned and led the Chiefs' offensive line to the Super Bowl that season.
With Chicago, he's picked up right where he left off and started in every game at offensive guard for the Bears in 2025. The undisputed leader of the Bears' offensive line is a massive part of why Caleb Williams has been sacked the sixth-fewest times this season (19).
Thuney is just one part of the offensive line, but he is an anchor on the inside and deserves to make his fourth-straight Pro Bowl.
Darnell Wright
My next pick is another offensive lineman for the Bears, but it's just as warranted.
Darnell Wright has really come into his own in just his third year in the NFL. Like Thuney, being available is one of Wright's greatest strengths. Wright has missed two games in his career and started in 11 games for the Bears in 2025.
The young right tackle is showing why this franchise took him 10th overall in the 2023 NFL Draft.
Caleb Williams
With a solid offensive line in front of him, it's no wonder that Caleb Williams is having success.
Williams has 2,722 passing yards, 17 touchdowns and five interceptions under first-year head coach Ben Johnson.
He continues to show off his play-making abilities with his legs, as he also has 306 rushing yards and three touchdowns.
His touchdown pass to tight end Cole Kmet late in the Eagles game shows you everything you need to know about the young quarterback.
If Williams makes the Pro Bowl, he would be the first Bears quarterback to be selected since Mitchell Trubisky in 2018.
This season's Pro Bowl will be held in San Francisco during Super Bowl week. It will feature an AFC vs. NFC flag football game. Coverage will begin on Feb. 3, 2026, at 5:30 p.m. CT via ESPN, and the game itself will start at 7 p.m. CT.
Here's hoping Chicago is well represented!
