NFC Notes: Bears, Rams, Seahawks

Bears

Bears second-year QB Mitch Trubisky said heโ€™s excited about new HC Matt Nagyโ€™s offensive system.

โ€œItโ€™s just dynamic, itโ€™s creative, and itโ€™s also balanced,โ€ Trubisky said, via NFL.com. โ€œAnd thatโ€™s what you want. Weโ€™re going to get the ball out quick. Weโ€™re going to deceive the defenses, and weโ€™re going to spread the field, and weโ€™re going to get it all over to our playmakers. Weโ€™re going to be balanced. Weโ€™re going to play fast. Weโ€™re going to be dynamic. And weโ€™re going to stretch the field every which way. I just feel like this offense is going to utilize my talents more and the players we have around me. Hopefully, we can just get it rolling from there. So Iโ€™m excited to keep diving in and keep working.โ€

Rams

The Rams held the introductory press conference for new DL Ndamukong Suh on Friday.

Suh mentioned that heโ€™s โ€œdefinitely excitedโ€ about being in Los Angeles and looking forward to seeing what they can do in 2018.

โ€œDefinitely excited about the opportunities here,โ€ Suh said, via TheRams.com. โ€œReally, really fortunate just looking at the overall scheme. I think everybody looks at everything on paper, and I would say weโ€™re in pretty good shape on paper. But we have a lot of things to prove.โ€

Suh also said heโ€™s excited to figure out how he and Aaron Donald will work together.

โ€œFirst and foremost itโ€™s going to start in OTAs and practices โ€” understanding how [Donald] likes to rush, how I like to rush, how we play the run together,โ€ Suh said. โ€œAnd thatโ€™s when itโ€™ll all unfold from there, to see how weโ€™ll mesh together. And I think itโ€™ll be an exciting time and process to get through that.โ€

  • While the Rams released CB Kayvon Webster on Friday, Gary Klein reports that itโ€™s still possible he could return to Los Angeles at some point.

Seahawks

  • Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports predicts that the Seahawks will trade Pro Bowl S Earl Thomas by the first day of the draft.
  • However, La Canfora says that Thomas will not net the Seahawks the first- and third-round picks theyโ€™re reportedly seeking for Thomas, but they should still be able to secure multiple picks for him.
  • The Seahawks are set to work out Oregon State inside linebacker Manase Hungalu. (Aaron Wilson)
