Bears' $72 million defender's resurgence further proves Matt Eberflus's defect

After two inconsistent seasons, linebacker Tremaine Edmunds has been a revelation for the Chicago Bears this season. Edmunds is silencing critics by showcasing talent that earned him a massive four-year, $72 million contract in the 2023 offseason.

At just 27 years old, Edmunds is in the prime of his career. It is hard to believe he was drafted in the first round by the Buffalo Bills at just 19 years old in the 2018 NFL Draft. This season, he has been consistently disrupting opposing offenses with his speed, instincts, and physicality. His ability to read plays and make game-changing stops has been pivotal for the Bears' defense, which has shown dramatic improvement in recent weeks.
