T.J. Edwards and Colston Loveland Receive the 2025 Brian Piccolo Awards

“Why I fell in love with this game was just the respect of my peers and the respect of my teammates,” Edwards said. “To get something that is solely based on what your teammates think of you, it’s incredible. I just try to try to be myself and try to talk to everyone because it’s nice to come into work when you actually know and care for the people around you. That’s the kind of place that’s been built here.”

Loveland led the Bears in receiving yards (713), receptions (58), and tied for the team lead in receiving touchdowns (6). “It really is an honor to accept this award,” Loveland said from chicagobears.com. “To be associated with a name that stands for courage, loyalty, and selflessness, that really means a lot. I feel like I have similar values. And to get it from your teammates, that means even more because you’re sweating with them, you’re bleeding with them, you’re crying with them.” *For more information about the Brian Piccolo Cancer Research Fund, you can visit this site: *
