Bears WR Zavion Thomas had best response to his 97-yard TD vs. Titans

Chicago Bears rookie WR Zavion Thomas had a great response when discussing his electric 97-yard touchdown catch.

Rookie Chicago Bears wide receiver Zavion Thomas made an electrifying impact on the field during the preseason finale against the Tennessee Titans. Within the opening play of the Bears' offensive drive, Thomas showcased his remarkable speed by catching a pass from quarterback Tyson Bagent and sprinting down the sideline for a staggering 97-yard touchdown reception.

This impressive performance was a primary factor in the Bears' decision to select Thomas in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft. In the team's post-game celebration, Thomas was asked about his touchdown run and whether the Titans' defense could have caught up to him. With characteristic enthusiasm, Thomas responded, "Nah, he didn't have a chance."

He clarified that his sole focus was on reaching the end zone. The Bears' offense was clearly delighted with their 24-15 victory over the Titans, which saw quarterback Tyson Bagent throwing for 208 yards and two touchdowns, and running back Roschon Johnson adding to the team's strong preseason performance with a final touchdown run.
