Bears DE Mitch Unrein's wife earns bronze medal at Rio Olympics

The wife of Bears defensive end Mitch Unrein, Corey Cogdell, earned a bronze medal on Sunday in the women's trap shooting event at the 2016 Rio Olympics.

It wasn't the second Olympic medal for Cogdell, who won bronze at the 2008 Beijing Games. She finished 11th at the 2012 London Games. She was a favorite to medal in this year's Olympics, ranked No. 4 in the world entering this month's Games.

Unrein, of course, was unable to travel to Rio due to Bears training camp. But the defensive end hosted a viewing party with some of his teammates, who all have been behind Cogdell:
