A year after Montez Sweat became the first player in NFL history to lead two teams in sacks in the same season, fueled a Bears surge in the second half and made the Pro Bowl for the first time, his goals for 2024 are pretty simple.
“Just be better than I was last year,” Sweat said.
Coming off a career-high 12 1/2 sacks last season, Sweat is set up to do that in 2024. After leading the Bears with six sacks in nine games after being traded from the Commanders at mid-season, he’s already here this year — well-versed in Matt Eberflus’ defense and in a comfort zone with all but two starters back.
