Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Zavion Thomas introduced himself to the rest of the NFL in the team's preseason finale against the Tennessee Titans, where he made plays on offense and special teams that should have Bears fans excited.

But it was the very first play on offense for the Bears where Thomas showcased what he can develop into in this Ben Johnson offense. Thomas pulled a double move on a Titans defender to break free, where quarterback Tyson Bagent found him downfield and Thomas used his speed to separate from a second defender down the right sideline for a 97-yard touchdown.

Thomas ended the game with five catches on five targets for 140 yards and one touchdown. He also found success in the return game, including a 39-yard kickoff return and 22-yard punt return.

Thomas' teammates, Luther Burden III and Jahdae Walker, took to social media to share their reactions to the impressive touchdown.

The Bears have a slew of weapons on offense, including wide receivers Rome Odunze, Luther Burden III, Kalif Raymond, Jahdae Walker and Thomas, as well as tight ends Colston Loveland and Cole Kmet. It's a crowded room, for sure, but head coach Ben Johnson will surely find a way to get Thomas involved in the passing game and use him to make things difficult on opposing defenses.
