Chicago Bears 2018 Draft Roundtable: Linebackers

It’s Week 5 in the 2017 season. Passionate Bear Danny Trevathan is suspended for playing through the whistle and incidentally knocking helmets with Davante Adams. 2016 stud Jerrell Freeman and up-and-comer Nick Kwiatkoski are both out due to pectoral injuries. John Timu, a practice squad promotion, falls forward over a pinned, externally-rotated leg and is out for the game. Play-calling duties fall to Christian Jones, who doesn’t waste any time demonstrating his lack of experience in the role, proceeding to miscommunicate assignments and let an outside pitch to Jerrick McKinnon go for a 58-yard touchdown.
