I don't know why the rest of the National Football League would view Tyson Bajent with that esteem.

We're watching every step of his career here in Chicago and marveling at it.

The rest of the NFL isn't watching every move Tyson Bajent makes and marveling at it.

They've seen him start four games, go two and two, show that, yeah, the arm strength is an issue.

But, yeah, he's impressive for his resume, just like Braxton Jones, impressive for his resume.

Just like, I'm blanking on the defensive end's name, who started the majority of the season opposite Montez Sweat.

Austin Booker?

Austin Booker.

Austin Booker is impressive for his draft profile, for being a fifth-round pick.

Tyson Bajent, I don't think he's a darling around the National.

I'd be surprised if Tyson Bajent was some darling around the National Football League that teams were clamoring to come and bring him in as a starter.

He hasn't achieved at that level yet.

Gardner Minshew has started a good amount of games during the time Tyson Bajent has been a quarterback in the National Football League.

You can definitely get Gardner Minshew or more out of Tyson Bajent, but the rest of the NFL isn't like clamoring to get Gardner Minshew either.

So I think that's the realm of how the NFL should view Tyson Bajent, but it only takes one team.

Yeah, and it's too bad.

I love going into the season last year.

I got to spend some time with him on draft day and just seeing the way he reshaped his body and the commitment that he talked about.

I was out there with Luke and Ellis.

We were doing our draft show out at Soldier Field.
