The Chicago Bears just got a wide receiver to help replace DJ Moore.

It's the LSU wide receiver Zavion Thomas, one of the fastest players in the draft.

Thomas joins a talented WR depth chart with Rome Odunze and Luther Burden. They'll help Caleb Williams ascend to superstardom.

Thomas is originally from Jefferson Parish in Louisiana.

He began his college career at Mississippi State before going to LSU.

He's only 5-foot-10, but that speed makes up for it.

In the 2025 season at LSU, Thomas had 41 catches for 488 yards and four touchdowns. He also ran 19 times for 99 yards and a score.

He can really do it all. Expect him to make plays for Chicago.
