Bears Sign New LB


AZ54

Recommended Posts

We went out and got this guy pretty quickly after he got cut and he's been coached by Reggie Herring before. Must be something there we really like.

I checked around some draft profiles. From a physical and athletic standpoint he's not a diamond in the rough like Christian Jones may become but he sounds as if he's pretty quick for a LB but on the smaller side. He's been around long enough that we want him for special teams now or as a backup player moving forward (as in next year) or both. I suppose this could be related to Shea breaking his hand but there has been nothing out there indicating that is a long term issue so I don't think so.

Whose injury was season ending?

 

Shaptons.

 

Redskins placed ILB Darryl Sharpton on injured reserve, ending his season. He suffered a high ankle sprain in preseason. Aug 30 - 10:22 AM

I'm guessing they just didn't wanna place him on the partial season IR or whatever it's called? Bears signed him to a 1 year contract, and a high ankle sprain that happened a month ago doesn't seem like something that would be season ending.
