Out for two games for using PEDs. Some will say he must’ve been getting the placebo and didn’t know it. 🤷‍♂️

If theres a plus to this, it is the Bears get 2.6 million added to the cap that won'tbe paid to Sweat.

Shemar Turner took his roster spot. Hopefully he’s ready to play.

The Bears are appealing the 2 game suspension and trying to extend it to 6 games.

Maybe an Adam or you question, or anyone keen on how NFL contracts work. Read yesterday that because of this incident the Bears aren’t tied to any of his contract “guarantees” anymore. Meaning, or at least the way I understood it, he could be expendable next year at low risk to the team.

Did someone in the front office slip him a ruffee? Seems like a blessing to be able to go big on a Max Crosby or another top Edge.

As for this year, I do not see the Bears cutting mid season without a reliable replacement.

Thanks for that. Couldn’t help but notice about halfway down the article the author mentioned “Gervon Dexter and D’Marcus Walker could face more attention from opposing offensive lines.” I know Dexter is gone but isn’t Walker too?

I saw that. LOL. Sounds like a mistake Google's AI would make. Gemini has made so many errors when I ask it a question; it is scary to think AI might take control.

I don't think we get an EDGE. The interior is not causing any disruption.

I would trade a first rd pick and Sweat for Crosby.

Im not sure they do much at DT this year with Jarrett, Dayo, Gallimore, Lynch, Van Den Berg, and co. It must be scheme assignment as to why the pressure isnt better.

Man of mystery...

Rumors are Sweat is appealing his suspension. Which, according to reporters, is odd given decisions are made usually after any appeals. Some say he is on a type of prescription med that may show hot on tests. More to come perhaps. https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/bears-montez-sweat-may-reverse-230351450.html

Usually aren’t you able to play while on appeal.
