The Chicago Bears aren’t the only NFC North team that invested in the line of scrimmage during a whirlwind start to the NFL’s new year.
They’re just the team that has done the most work in the trenches after a 5-12 season, the sixth time in the last 11 years they finished last in the division.
The Bears have been so busy, they caught the attention of Amon-Ra St. Brown, the All-Pro Detroit Lions wide receiver who came off as something between envious and impressed at all the work that has been done for first-year Bears coach Ben Johnson, the former Lions offensive coordinator.
