The Chicago Bears have significantly bolstered their offense by acquiring six-time Pro Bowl selection wide receiver Keenan Allen from the Los Angeles Chargers. This move pairs Allen with DJ Moore, creating one of the league's most formidable receiving tandems. The Bears, under the management of Ryan Poles, are making strategic moves ahead of the NFL Draft, where they hold the No. 1 and No. 9 overall picks. The team is expected to draft USC's Caleb Williams, further enhancing their offensive lineup. Allen's trade discussions also involved the New York Jets and Houston Texans, but the Bears ultimately secured the deal. Allen expressed his excitement about joining the Bears' offense and is open to playing for the team beyond the 2024 season.
Before he was traded from the Chargers to the Bears, wide receiver Keenan Allen revealed that Los Angeles had permitted him to explore several options for where he wanted to continue his career. https://t.co/h9lYdmwQ48

The Bears didn’t land an edge rusher or a lockdown offensive tackle in the first wave of free agency. Trading for receiver Keenan Allen, though, could allow them to focus on those two positions when they draft No. 9 overall next month. https://t.co/sAl4cwW2Ej

Bears building up weapons: DJ Moore Keenan Allen Cole Kmet Gerald Everett D’Andre Swift Plus No. 9, which they could use or turn into more assets. All situations are tough for a rookie QB, so having a good situation to come into gives them a better chance.
Chicago offers: #9, 2025 1st Round Pick, 2025 3rd Round Pick, Justin Fields New England offers: #3 overall pick Caleb Williams + Keenan Allen, DJ Moore, Marvin Harrison Jr. 🔥 Bears load Caleb with weapons similar to how Cincy did with Burrow... New England doesn't have to…
The Bears have gotten quite the haul for the 2023 No. 1 overall pick 👀 https://t.co/LH2K9nJz28
The Bears have two good, young tackles, two good,young corners, Sweat as an edge — need one more — and get a perceived franchise QB with the first pick. Plus have a big-time WR in Moore and now have Allen to go with TE Kmet. They get it. Watch out. Send a bottle to the Panthers.

The Bears are definitely creating a great offensive situation for Williams. Swift, Allen, Moore, a young OL. If they go LT at #9, Williams could step into one of the best rookie situations in a long time. https://t.co/Pbj1gWYVkf
Marquise Brown should be drafted when in PPR now that he’s in Kansas City?
Keenan Allen should be drafted when in PPR now that he’s in Chicago?
By adding Keenan Allen, the Bears continued to build around the quarterback they don’t officially have yet, writes @danielrpopper. …perhaps soon to be Caleb Williams. Do you like Chicago’s offseason moves so far? https://t.co/aaFx8SgKe1 https://t.co/5YHQLza1hF

Keenan Allen is now a Chicago Bear. So... what happened?! Let's discuss on @The33rdTeamFB. https://t.co/ySXmzLhuPS https://t.co/oGLY9JYrCa
The Bears have upgraded the pass game this week. • WR Keenan Allen — High-end route running. Ability to uncover, move the sticks. • RB D’Andre Swift — Backfield releases, screens, underneath matchups. • TE Gerald Everett — Alignment versatility. MOF throws. YAC.
1. Bears - Caleb Williams 2. Commanders - Jayden Daniels 3. Patriots - Drake Maye 4. Cardinals - Marvin Harrison Jr. 5. Chargers - JJ McCarthy * Chargers trade Herbert to Bears * Bears trade Williams to Vikings * Vikings trade Justin Jefferson plus 2 R1 picks to Chargers
Checking new Bears futures after the Keenan Allen trade…. 🤷🏻♂️ 🐻⬇️ https://t.co/L7J78ecBnE
Did the Chicago Bears pull off the greatest fleece ever? They got a HAUL for the 2023 1st overall pick😳, via @AlbertBreer - OT Darnell Wright - WR Keenan Allen - CB Tyrique Stevenson - WR DJ Moore - 1st pick in 2024 - 2nd-rounder pick 2025 draft (Additional Trades included) https://t.co/Zbj3UeygIl
Going from Herbert to a rookie QB isn't great for Allen's fantasy value but damn. DJ Moore & Keenan Allen? Now THAT's a WR room. https://t.co/6fihCHyKNO
Bears return for No. 1 pick in the 2023 draft ... • OT Darnell Wright*. • WR Keenan Allen*. • CB Tyrique Stevenson**. • WR DJ Moore. • First overall pick in 2024 draft. • Second-round pick in 2025 draft. * trade of 9th pick in '23. ** trade up from 61st pick in '23.

First look at Keenan Allen as a Chicago Bear 🔥 https://t.co/CujqJc8hE3
Rate the Bears’ offense with Caleb Williams at QB: QB: Caleb Williams RB D’Andre Swift RB: Roschon Johnson WR DJ Moore WR Keenan Allen TE Cole Kmet TE Gerald Everett https://t.co/zTjpAfjyTf
Pieces in place for the number 1 overall pick to work with in Chicago: WR DJ Moore WR Keenan Allen RB D’Andre Swift TE Cole Kmet TE Gerald Everett A young OT duo of Darnell Wright and Braxton Jones. A rebuilt offensive coaching staff. Pretty darn good.
Some late-night WR movement — Keenan Allen to the #Bears. Hollywood to the #Chiefs. https://t.co/J57pJWPZfd
The Chargers offense now is set to go into next season without Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, Austin Ekeler and Gerald Everett. A new-look offense for Justin Herbert. https://t.co/CFIMPdLLqs

Bears offseason additions so far: 🏈WR Keenan Allen 🏈RB D’Andre Swift 🏈TE Gerald Everett 🏈S Kevin Byard 🏈C Coleman Shelton 🏈DB Jonathan Owens Chicago also owns the No. 1 and No. 9 overall picks in April’s draft.
#Bears offense loaded up: WR: D.J. Moore, Keenan Allen TE: Cole Kmet, Gerald Everett RB: D’Andre Swift, Khalil Herbert, Roschon Johnson
The Keenan Allen trade does multiple things: 1) Helps stabilize the Bears WR group 2) Chicago can go BPA at 1.09. Could take a WR, OT, DE 3) Allen could walk after 2024 season and recoup a comp pick worth more than the 4th they gave up 4) Helps a young QB develop https://t.co/JsZ8PasGFY
Like the Keenan Allen trade overall. Like the statement it sends. Worry about Allen declining, but with DJ Moore, he doesn't have to be the 100-reception per year guy here. Another veteran around Caleb, making life easier on him. Expect they'll trade the 9th pick now.
Justin Herbert right now… https://t.co/awfDjCcp7m
Justin Fields had Darnell Mooney and dusty Allen Robinson for his rookie year and the next rookie quarterback for Chicago is going to have DJ Moore and Keenan Allen. At least they learned their lesson.
You know #Chargers HC Jim Harbaugh is valuing the great D & Deep Penetrating Run Game. Harbaugh chose the Defense over the Offense: Traded Keenan Allen Released Mike Williams — Kept & restructured the contracts of Joey Bosa and Khalil Mack. https://t.co/DujWjWUwW2
