DJ's faster than Rome, but both guys are similar in that way where they don't look like they're working hard when they're running their routes.

But I would say Roman Dunze is a better, more precise route runner than DJ Moore, even already at this point in his development.

So that, I would imagine, presented a problem for the Bears' offense, for Ben Johnson, and that he's not a guy who kind of makes up for it with that ability to catch the ball away from his frame.

That fed into, from my estimation, his ability to kind of get on the same page with Caleb consistently.

I immediately was saying to my wife, you know, Drew Dahlman's 27 years old, and I haven't perceived him.

I mean, he's consistently been available throughout his young career.

And I haven't perceived him as a guy who's had a lot of surgeries, but that certainly doesn't mean he hasn't consistently dealt with a lot of injuries.

And those injuries can present themselves orthopedically.

They can also present themselves neurologically.

And we won't likely get the full story on that until we're further removed away from the shocking news of the dawn of retirement.

But for me, I was 28 years old.

I bounced around the NFL for five years, having surgeries with this team and that team.

And I played in the Arena Football League for a few years.

And my thought was, all right, here we go.

I'll have more job security.

It'll be a version of the sport that's less rough, still make good money doing it.

Same thing, just kept having surgeries, injuring knees on the turf, shoulders, back, everything else.

It just got to a point where I got into a training camp and I was out there.

I was recovering from my most recent surgery.

And I just didn't have it.
