Don't call Bears sackman Willie Young a linebacker

Willie Young is a pass rusher. More than a sack per game over the last four games. And he really doesn’t care whether you know that he’s coming on a rush or dropping back into pass coverage as a not-defensive-end (more on that in a moment).

“I’m certain they know when I’m coming,” Young deadpanned on Wednesday. “I’m usually slobbering at the mouth, nose dripping with blood, just about, so they know when I’m coming.

“They know when I’m not coming because I’m crying. Tears are coming down my face because I’m not able to rush the quarterback.
