Chicago Bears LG Kush handling job share like a pro

Bears six-year veteran Eric Kush finds himself in a difficult situation, having to share the starting OLG job he won in training camp with second-round draft pick James Daniels.

It could be an awkward situation for everyone involved, but Kush’s professionalism has prevented that from happening.

“Eric’s a pro,” OL coach Harry Hiestand said after Week Four, the first time Kush and Daniels alternated possessions. “Eric’s a team player, and if you ask him, he’ll describe what his feelings are. He’s going to do what’s best for the team and he’s going to do everything he can to get as many snaps as he can get and that’s what he’s focused on.
