The Chicago Bears have eight rookies who have started at least one game. Here's a look at the top first-year contributors.
Among the best things the Chicago Bears have gotten out of this 3-10 season, along with the development of quarterback Justin Fields, is extended playing time for a lot of rookies.
But defensive coordinator Alan Williams has pointed to growth in the meeting room with the kinds of questions Gordon asks and in his comfort on the field, including his ability to recognize plays and play faster. Williams said Gordon’s tackling also has improved, but coaches are looking for better consistency.
Coach Matt Eberflus has touted Brisker’s mental and physical toughness and his desire to get better. And Williams said last week he has seen growth in Brisker’s understanding of the details of the defense, though he also missed the last two games with a concussion.
“Him and Jack Sanborn both play with a speed that you don’t really see rookies play with when they first come in,” Jones said. “I know I sure didn’t when I came in. … I saw it with Derwin when we both came in as rookies together. I saw him play at the same speed. Now obviously Derwin is a little bit bigger. They’re different athletes. But the mental part of the game, when people say a rookie wall, I don’t think he’s had one.”Bears wide receiver Velus Jones Jr.
“He’s a guy that, first, he takes accountability for everything,” Hightower said. “And then I’ve seen a guy that just works hard and works his tail off, which means he’s the right kind of character guy, which is a credit to the personnel staff that they keep having guys in here that have great character.”
He and his coaches are straightforward in acknowledging he has plenty of improvements to make — but they also see promise.Eberflus praised Jones’ maturity, and offensive line coach Chris Morgan said Jones is putting good things on film but needs to strive for more consistency. Jones agreed.
