The Bears are working with Montez Sweat to make their star defensive end more versatile.
“We want flexibility where we can align him,” defensive coordinator Eric Washington said Tuesday after the team’s fourth training camp practice at Halas Hall. “We want to utilize his skillset against the offensive line — and not just specific to one position.”
That includes moving him from one side of the line to the other — or from edge rusher to tackle — in specific moments. The latter would be a change for Sweat; he’s played 3,395 career snaps; all but 75 have been with him lined up outside either tackle.
