Prior to yesterday’s preseason-opening 23-17 win by the Chicago Bears, I wrote about how important it was for some key young players to play well in this game. On the defensive side of the ball, several players jumped out, and that will make for an interesting next three weeks as Chicago prepares for the 2023 NFL season.
After playing well his first two seasons, Trevis Gibson regressed last year and was clearly in danger of not making this year’s 53-man roster. It was imperative that Gipson have a strong preseason and play the way a challenged player should.
