The season is officially over for Colstone Loveland and the Chicago Bears. Their campaign ended on Sunday with a 20-17 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Rams in the divisional round.
Loveland turned in a strong performance in the game, registering four catches for a team-high 56 yards. It still wasn’t enough, though. The Bears came up short in the extra period, as L.A. secured the win via a 42-yard field goal with 3:19 left.
The Rams are now headed to the conference championship game, where they will face Sam Darnold and the Seattle Seahawks. It’s the end of the line, however, for the Bears and their memorable campaign.

Loveland was unable to finish Sunday’s game against L.A. The first-round rookie exited late in the fourth quarter due to a head injury. He did not return. Bears head coach Ben Johnson announced after the game that Loveland had been diagnosed with a concussion. The 21-year-old will now be placed under the NFL’s concussion protocol.
Loveland took to social media on Monday to send a one-word message.
“CHICAGO 🫶” posted the former Michigan Wolverines star.

Loveland kept his message short and sweet, but he sent his love to Chicago after the team’s season-ending defeat.
In his latest Instagram post, Loveland shared some of his favorite photos from his memorable rookie year. The Bears put a lot of stock in the national championship-winning TE, selecting him 10th overall in the 2025 NFL Draft. Loveland responded with 58 catches for 713 yards and six touchdowns in 16 regular-season games (11 starts).
The Bears expect Loveland to play a significant role in 2026. If his rookie campaign is an indication of what’s to come from the young TE, then the future is certainly bright for Chicago.
