Despite evidence to the contrary Sunday, Bears defensive coordinator Eric Washington said Thursday that cornerback Tyrique Stevenson doesn’t have any big-picture issues with his focus.
Stevenson famously was gesturing toward fans Sunday while the Commanders were snapping the ball to start a Hail Mary pass as time expired. Stevenson was supposed to be guarding Noah Brown, who caught the tipped pass for a touchdown while the cornerback mistakenly leaped for the ball.
