Bears Leaders Set the Standard | NFL News
Description
When the Chicago Bears push through brutal practices, true leadership emerges—not from coaches, but from players like Grady Jarrett and Jaylon Johnson. Jarrett publicly called out tired defenders Jordan van den Berg and Montez Sweat for taking a knee, demanding they stay engaged even when exhausted. Meanwhile, Johnson rallied the team before red zone drills, raising the intensity—and later helped Sweat back to the sideline after the same drill. Their actions, praised by reporters, signal a culture shift: veteran accountability driving collective excellence. This isn’t just grit—it’s the kind of player-led energy that can transform a roster.
