WARE, England — Anyone who has flown overseas knows it’s tough to get comfortable in an airplane seat and get decent sleep. It’s even tougher for someone like Bears defensive end Montez Sweat at 6-foot-6, 262 pounds, and he got “a little bit of sleep, but not much” to begin his week abroad.

The flight and six-hour time difference have challenged Sweat, who had never been to Europe and looked groggy Thursday morning before practice at Hanbury Manor and said — literally through a yawn — that he was “slowly shaking back” into feeling normal.
