New Bears tight end Colston Loveland had an encouraging update about his recovery timeline from AC joint surgery.

The Chicago Bears picked tight end Colston Loveland out of the University of Michigan at No. 10 for their first round pick Thursday night. Loveland was born and raised on a farm in the small town of Bliss, Idaho. He grew up wrangling horses and raising sheep but also loved basketball and football.

Colston Loveland arrived at Halas Hall on Friday brimming with enthusiasm and optimism. The headliner of the 2025 Chicago Bears draft class has an orientation process ahead as he adjusts to life near the big city and on the big stage.
