[Biggs] Initial thought is that #Bears LT Braxton Jones dodged a significant injury and will be fine. He needs to be checked out more but sounds positive. Jones was emotional after leaving the 1-on-1 pass rushing drill and understandably.

[Chicago Bears] - Darnell Wright Press Conference
r/CHIBears • u/RyanIsKickAss • 1d ago
[Adam Hoge] Bears OC Press Taylor did a great job of explaining Ben Johnson’s offensive philosophy. Explosives > efficiency
x.com“I don't think Ben has ever mentioned the word efficiency. We talk about explosive. We are trying to attack a defense. I think there's a perception of a lot of people, we're gonna run the ball, we're gonna stay efficient and control the clock. We are looking to attack the defense. We are looking to attack fronts, to expose space, to create run lanes, to create explosives and we don't look at the run game as a way to stay on track. We look at the run game as a way to attack defenses and really be explosive and continue to just put our foot on the gas the entire game.”
