The Chicago Bears are deep into their offseason program, and all eyes are turning toward training camp and the 2026 season. But as the team gears up, one big question lingers: Can the Bears generate enough pass rush?

Despite having multiple opportunities in the 2026 NFL Draft, Chicago opted not to select a single edge rusher. The only defensive lineman they added was Jordan van den Berg, a sixth-round pick. That decision has left many analysts scratching their heads, especially given the team's defensive struggles last season.

The good news? Chicago expects to welcome back Dayo Odeyingbo and Shemar Turner at full health. Both players are viewed by the coaching staff and front office as key pieces in turning the defense around. Head coach Ben Johnson and defensive coordinator Dennis Allen have been vocal about their urgency to improve on that side of the ball. But outside pundits remain skeptical about whether the current roster has enough firepower off the edge.

Recently, CBS Sports' Tyler Sullivan weighed in on the topic, suggesting there are still notable veteran names available who could help boost the Bears' pass rush in the Windy City. Whether Chicago will pursue those options remains to be seen.

For a team aiming to make noise in 2026, solving the pass rush puzzle will be essential. And for Bears fans—whether you're watching from the stands or gearing up at home—one thing is clear: this defense needs to get after the quarterback, and fast.
