Apparently Nate Davis participated in the walk through and then sat out again. This guy has missed so much practice now, you gotta wonder if he is a liability (a big liability) if he does play. That is a legit concern. The guy has not been a good player for us when healthy. I have to wonder what his play would look like right now after missing the off season and training camp to this point? I'm thinking he would blow chunks right now... how do you play him if he even did get healthy?
LINK Nate Davis Has Been Put on Notice By Bears Coach Matt Eberflus
One thing I’ve grown to have an appreciation for is Matt Eberflus’ willingness to use the media to send a message to his players. The Chicago Bears head coach has done it in the past with Velus Jones Jr. and Chase Claypool. And now, it is Nate Davis’ turn in the line of fire.
The Chicago Tribune’s Brad Biggs captured a whale of a quote from Coach Flus from Tuesday’s press conference and it opened my eyes:
EBERFLUS TODAY: “If a person’s out for an extended period of time and the player that’s in that position is playing very well, at a starter level, and doing a good job there, then you create the competition. You say, ‘Hey, there’s a competition.’ People say you can’t lose a job because of injury. I don’t think that’s true. I think if the guy that’s playing there gives our team a good look and a good benefit for him being in that position, then it’s a competition. Or the other guy could take it over. That’s not just at guard. That’s at all positions.”
