Of all the Bears’ acquisitions during their offseason spending spree, defensive tackle Grady Jarrett is the riskiest. He turns 32 next month, he suffered a torn ACL two seasons ago and the Falcons — his team for a decade — didn’t see enough upside in his future to find a way to keep him.

Jarrett, though, has no interest in hearing about doubts. He also isn’t going to waste time on any hurt feelings about how his run with the Falcons ended.
