Bears Trade for Tryon-Shoyinka | Poles’ Deadline Plan, Caleb’s Midseason Grade & CJGJ’s Instant Impact
Description
The Chicago Bears didn’t make the big splash fans were hoping for — but they did make the move they needed. Ryan Poles trades for DE Joe Tryon-Shoyinka, adding a former first-round pick to a defensive line that just lost Dayo Odeyingbo to a torn Achilles. Chicago also tried to land Jets pass rusher Jermaine Johnson, but the second-round asking price was too steep.
On today’s episode of Chicago Bears Central, Haize breaks down why this wasn’t a “headline” deadline… and why that’s actually the right call for a team that still needs draft capital to rebuild the core.
We also dive into:
✅ Ben Johnson’s detailed breakdown of QB Caleb Williams’ midseason progress
✅ C.J. Gardner-Johnson’s instant impact after just one week in the system
✅ Where the Bears rank statistically entering Week 10 — the good, the bad, and the surprising
This is a big-picture episode for fans who want to understand where Chicago truly stands and how each piece fits into the long-term plan. Stick around — there’s a lot more here than just the trade.
