Rookie David Montgomery has a lot to accomplish during the team’s summer break.
Finding an apartment isn’t one of them.
“I might stay in the [team-issued] hotel all year,” he said Wednesday.
It’s less stressful, he said, and the room gets cleaned once a day. Growing up in poverty, he said, he didn’t always have a bed to sleep on. And this one is good.
“It’s a comfortable bed,” he said Wednesday.
Living a simple life will give the running back time to study the playbook. Montgomery goes over the Bears’ plays for two or three hours a night before bed.
