Anderson eager to learn from veterans

Bears inside linebacker Jonathan Anderson saw significant playing time last season as an undrafted rookie, recording 40 tackles while appearing in 11 games with three starts.

Anderson likely will have a reduced role on defense this year, given that the Bears bolstered his position by signing veterans Danny Trevathan and Jerrell Freeman in free agency. But the 24-year-old isn't complaining about the new additions.
