Newly signed defensive end Dayo Odeyingbo praises first-year head coach Ben Johnson for bringing the kind of tough love the Bears desperately need. Odeyingbo, who recently signed a $48 million contract with the team, describes Johnson as “very demanding” and a “perfectionist.” He notes that this type of leadership is crucial for a team that has struggled to find consistency in recent seasons.
According to Odeyingbo, Johnson’s high standards have created a sense of accountability among players. The defensive end believes he has prepared himself well for the upcoming season, feeling more fit and ready than ever before. With several other significant changes made during the offseason, including new coaching staff, the Bears are hoping these fresh faces will bring much-needed success to the team.
