The Bears received a number two wide receiver in Chase Claypool at the trade deadline. In return, the Steelers got the number 32 pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. The Steelers are now looking for their team’s number-two wide receiver.

Looks like Steelers backup quarterback Mitch Trubisky will be reunited with his former Bears teammate.
Robinson played with the Bears for the 2018-21 seasons. He never came close to his Pro Bowl year in 2015 with Chicago. Robinson finished with 3,561 yards receiving and 18 touchdowns during his four years with the Bears. Robinson left for the Rams in free agency last offseason. He was frustrated during his time with the Bears. And Bears fans felt the same way about his play.
