Kerrith Whyte Chicago Bears Jerseys , Ill. (AP) —anything positive to the Chicago Bears, it’s
young talent at key positions could be deeper than anticipated.Rookie outside
linebacker Kylie Fitts and several other Bears outside pass rushers have stepped
up at a need area, while seventh-round draft pick Javon Wims is giving an
indication competition for jobs at wide receiver will be fierce.“I think for all
of us outside ‘backers it’s a young group, so we all have a lot to show out,”
Fitts said.Fitts made a sack and four tackles Thursday night in the Bears’ 17-16
Hall of Fame Game loss to the Baltimore Ravens.It’s not the first time this
summer the Bears’ sixth-round draft pick from Utah has been harassing
quarterbacks. In training camp, he’s almost been too effective as he made
contact or got too close to Mitchell Trubiski, Chase Daniel and Tyler Bray.“We
had to get on him the last couple weeks and even in OTAs on staying away from
the quarterback,” Bears coach Matt Nagy said.With the start of preseason games,
Fitts can finally finish off sacks.“He plays extremely hard,” Nagy said. “I have
to sometimes remind him to make sure to stay away from the quarterback and the
throwing motion and he actually came up to me and apologized to me for it. But
you can’t fault a kid for trying to play hard trying to get to the quarterback.
So I told him ‘when we get to the preseason
Chicago Bears Jerseys 2019 , do it as much as you want.’ “The Bears needed someone to complement outside linebacker Leonard Floyd, and signed former 49ers
defensive end Aaron Lynch.Lynch hasn’t practiced due to a hamstring injury, and
Nagy said he’ll likely miss another preseason game.They also have veteran Sam
Acho, who has been a reserve for three seasons in Chicago.So when Fitts and
second-year outside linebacker Isaiah Irving each came up with a sack Thursday,
and the pass rush piled up eight sacks, the position seemed less of a problem.“I
feel really comfortable with that,” Nagy said. “And again, having Lynch out
right now is a struggle, just because we want him out there. But we’ve got to be
safe with him and make sure he’s 100 percent when he’s back.“But once we get him
back with Floyd and Acho and you have these other guys, these younger guys that
are coming up
Youth Kerrith Whyte Jersey , I feel like we’re in good shape at that spot and have depth there.”Except for a minor arm injury, Fitts has been healthy through
camp. He finds it refreshing after injuries kept him off the field his last two
college seasons, and likely caused a slide in the draft.“Last season it was
tough sitting out all those plays, but I just ignore, don’t think about
injuries. I just come out and think about performing really well,” Fitts
said.Like Fitts, Wims also fell in the draft. He went in the final round after a
productive year at Georgia.So Wims said he has something to prove, and Thursday
did it with game-highs of seven catches for 89 yards.“He did a good job using
his size and he also did a good job using his release moves, so that was a
positive,” Nagy said. “And then in regards to some details
Cheap Kerrith Whyte Jersey , he had some sloppy routes too.”Wims is just another in a large group of receivers to excite Bears offensive coaches. Veterans Allen
Robinson, Taylor Gabriel, Kevin White and Josh Bellamy, and rookie Anthony
Miller have also been productive in practice.At 6-foot-3, Wims not only lined up
outside, but also in the slot.“I think the great thing about this offense is all
receivers have got to know all positions,” Wims said. “Everybody. You kind of
have got to be position-less, and just be plugged in at spots.”The next test for
both young draft picks will be continuing their progress Thursday at
Cincinnati“Usually, the biggest thing that you see happen when a guy has a good
game — whoever that is; any position — sometimes, those young guys then start to
think
Kerrith Whyte Jersey Color Rush , ‘OK, I did a lot to help myself out and now I can kind of coast into practice or coast into the next game,’ ” Nagy said. “And
that’s not the case.“So our message to them is that’s over with now. You did
that, you played well. Now improve on that and build (on) those
blocks.”NOTESSafety Deon Busy (left hamstring) and cornerback Cre’Von LeBlanc
(groin) were injured in Thursday’s game and did not practice Saturday. … Nagy
said prior to the opener that talks were “stalemated” between the agent for
first-round draft pick Roquan Smith and the team as the holdout continues. Nagy
said Saturday there have been no new developments and the sides haven’t talked
again. On the latest episode of Bear With Me, Robert S brings on EJ Snyder to
