Oregon Ducks safety Dillon Thieneman has found his new home for the start of his NFL career. The Chicago Bears selected Thieneman with the No. 25 overall pick in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft on Thursday night. While he only played one season in Eugene before declaring for the draft this offseason, Thieneman’s impact on Oregon’s defense was remarkable and had a major impact on the Ducks' 13-2 finish in 2025. What Thieneman accomplished in his one season with Oregon, both as an individual and as a leader of Oregon’s defense, is one of the main reasons he shot up draft boards and was selected in the first round. Now with the Bears, Thieneman looks to become a key contributor for Chicago's secondary as they aim to defend their NFC North title.
