And Bears, as we know, led the league with 33 takeaways last year.
Fifteen of them are gone.
Right.
With Nashawn Wright and Kevin Bayard on their way out.
The takeaways, I think that was the identity, right, of the Bears defense and the style of play.
And that's how they were able to keep, I think, the team in a lot of those games and especially a lot of those close games last year.
What would you like to see the identity of the defense be this year as Dennis Allen gets to bring more guys in that fit his style of play?
So I want to ask you about a familiar face returning, Jack Sanborn.
We know the linebacker position is an interesting one, right?
Because as you mentioned, Tremaine Edmonds was a really good football player, and he's going to be a starter on 32 NFL teams right out there.
So this is somebody that the Bears are going to have to figure out how to replace.
Obviously, they go out and get Devin Bush, who I think everyone's really excited about.
You re-sign DeMarco Jackson, and now you add Jack Sanborn in the mix.
Ruben Hippolyte is a draft pick from last year, and he couldn't even get on the field for special teams.
He was a healthy scratch at the end of the year.
So where does Jack Sanborn fit into this?
Obviously, also a great special teamer.
