Waddle: Bears should not bring back Keenan Allen

Tom Waddle joins the Bears Banter Podcast!

The latest Bears Banter Podcast has dropped!

The Super Bowl is in the books, and that means all teams have pivoted to the 2025 season. Former Chicago Bears’ great and ESPN 1000’s Tom Waddle joined the podcast earlier today, and we discussed plenty of topics, from Virginia McCaskey to the ownership transition to the Super Bowl itself. We also asked him to assess the team’s top three wide receivers, and he didn’t think bringing back Keenan Allen was the best plan for the team.

“I thought they lost track of the tight end position [last year],” Waddled stated. “I don’t think he [Cole Kmet] and Caleb were on the same page at all, and I think that was the residual of throwing to Keenan as much as they did. I would wish Keenan well. He has had a fabulous career, borderline hall of fame player, I just don’t think that’s the route they need to go.”

Waddle also had great insight on other topics, so make sure you check out a great podcast!
