LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Shhh ... don’t tell Willie Young the Chicago Bears officially list him at outside linebacker, and not defensive end, the position Young played the previous five years in a 4-3 defense.
“I think [Bears defensive coordinator Vic Fangio and I] have a solid argument every day I come into work about me being a defensive end or ... uh ... that other thing,” Young said with a smile on Wednesday.
Young can’t even bring himself to say the words, “outside linebacker.”
“Nah ... defensive end ... defensive end,” Young said.
