LAKE FOREST, Ill. – Shifty rookie slot receiver Daniel Braverman has a chip on his shoulder the size of South Florida.
“I grew up with a chip on my shoulder just from being from South Florida and always having to prove myself on the field,” Braverman said at the Chicago Bears' organized team activities.
Long before the Bears used a seventh-round pick on Braverman, the Miramar, Florida, native often felt overlooked in high school, primarily because of his size.
Even now, Braverman’s 5-foot-10, 177-pound frame raises questions about his ability to compete at the NFL level.
