BREAKING: The Chicago Bears may be preparing one FINAL veteran strike to save their pass rush — and two massive names just exploded onto the radar after NFL analyst Brian Baldinger publicly urged Chicago to make a move IMMEDIATELY.

The names?

Von Miller.
Jadeveon Clowney.

And Bears fans are already divided over which former superstar could become the missing piece for a defense desperate for pressure.

According to Baldinger, both veterans would instantly raise the floor of Chicago’s struggling pass rush — a unit that finished near the bottom of the NFL last season and still has major question marks entering 2026.

The scariest part?

He might be right.

Let’s start with Von Miller.

Yes, he’s 36 years old. Yes, he’s no longer the terrifying All-Pro monster who once dominated the league. But insiders say Miller STILL knows how to hunt quarterbacks — and last season proved it.

While playing limited snaps with Washington, Miller reportedly led the Commanders in sacks with NINE while playing only around one-third of the defensive snaps. That’s the kind of efficiency that has Bears fans suddenly dreaming about a deadly third-down “NASCAR package” built around pure chaos.

And here’s the twist making this rumor feel even more real:

Dennis Allen already knows him.

Allen was Miller’s defensive coordinator when Denver drafted him back in 2011, creating a direct connection that many around the league believe could matter behind the scenes.

Now imagine this scenario:

Montez Sweat collapsing one side of the pocket… while Von Miller comes screaming off the edge on obvious passing downs.

Quarterbacks across the NFC North would be in survival mode.

But if Bears fans think Miller is exciting, the Jadeveon Clowney conversation may be even hotter.

Because unlike Miller, Clowney is still viewed as a more complete edge defender.

Baldinger described him as “good everywhere he goes” — and honestly, the numbers back it up.

Clowney quietly delivered one of the strongest pass-rushing seasons of his career in Dallas last year, recording elite pressure numbers while continuing to dominate against the run. Analysts say he may never have fully lived up to the expectations of being a No. 1 overall pick… but he’s still been one of the NFL’s most reliable defensive weapons for YEARS.

And Chicago’s current situation makes the fit dangerously tempting.

Dayo Odeyingbo is recovering from a torn Achilles.
Shamar Turner is coming off a torn ACL.
The Bears still lack proven depth behind Montez Sweat.

That means Ryan Poles could be forced to act before training camp spirals into disaster.

Insiders also believe both veterans would fit perfectly into the locker room culture Ben Johnson and Ryan Poles are trying to build. Baldinger praised both Miller and Clowney for their energy, leadership, and passion for the game — exactly the type of veteran presence Chicago wants around its young roster.

And with other pass rushers already disappearing off the market, the pressure is growing FAST.

Dante Fowler is gone.
Calais Campbell is already signed.
More veteran edge rushers are disappearing every week.

If the Bears want help, the clock is ticking.

Now Bears Nation is facing one massive question:

Do you roll the dice on Von Miller’s legendary pass-rush instincts?
Or do you trust Jadeveon Clowney’s all-around physical dominance?

Either way, one thing is becoming painfully obvious:

Chicago knows this pass rush STILL isn’t good enough — and a major veteran signing may be coming sooner than anyone expected.
