10 Most Important Bears of 2019: #6 Is Eddie Jackson the best safety in the NFL?

When you’re compared to a player that has nine Pro Bowls, five First Team All-Pros, and the Pro Football Hall of Fame on his resume, it’s safe to say that expectations are pretty high for Chicago Bears third year pro, Eddie Jackson.

“From a talent standpoint? Very, very similar,” Bears defensive coordinator Chuck Pagano said via the Chicago Sun Times when discussing the similarities between Jackson and class of 2019 Hall of Famer, Ed Reed.

Pagano should know as he coached Reed for four years with the Baltimore Ravens.
