The Chicago Bears kicked off their rookie minicamp on Friday at Halas Hall, and the rookie jersey numbers were officially revealed. Second-round wide receiver Luther Burden III chose No. 87 -- but it wasn't his first choice.

It’s up to the coaching staff to make all the pieces fit — Burden and first-round pick Colston Loveland, a tight end, are joining an offense that already features pass-catchers DJ Moore, Rome Odunze, Cole Kmet and Olamide Zaccheus.

While Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Luther Burden III went through rookie minicamp, it's safe to say he didn't love the number on his practice jersey. The Missouri product wore No. 3 for the Tigers, but jumped all the way up to No. 87 with the Bears. And when he was asked how he landed on No. 87, he couldn't help but laugh.
