Chicago Bears
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Booker was selected by the Bears in the fifth round of this year's draft. At 6-5 and 240 pounds, the pass rusher may need to bulk up a bit before having a chance to earn a prominent role. The Kansas product has only 18 games of college experience. As a result, Booker also may have a developmental curve as he transitions to the NFL. With Montez Sweat and DeMarcus Walker set as starters at defensive end in Chicago's 4-3 defense, Booker will have the luxury of starting his career as a rotational player. Read Past Outlooks

Booker tallied one stop in the Bears' 24-22 win over the Packers on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
After being selected in the fifth round of the 2024 draft, Booker played 24 percent of the snaps for Chicago, leading to 21 tackles, including 1.5 sacks. If Darrell Taylor leaves as a free agent, Booker may be able to move up the depth chart as he enters the second year of a four-year contract with the Bears.
