Chicago Bears receiver gets full coaching staff backing despite ejection
Chicago Bears wide receiver Jahdae Walker plays the game of football with a fiery mentality. As a former undrafted free agent, he doesn’t take any opportunities at the NFL level for granted.
But in Week 6 against the Atlanta Falcons, Walker took things a bit too far. He was ejected in the fourth quarterback for headbutting Atlanta receiver Chris Blair during a special teams play.

Walker will likely pick up a fine from the league for his ejection. However, the Bears themselves don’t plan on dragging the situation out any further. Chicago knows Walker shouldn’t have thrown a headbutt. But they’ve also seen the type of person and player the wide receiver has come.
Chicago Bears back Jahdae Walker
On Monday, head coach Ben Johnson showed his support for Walker. He called him a “passionate player” and expects him to learn from the ejection. Plus it was clear to Johnson Walker felt immediately bad about the decision, via ESPN1000, h/t Sean Hammond of the Chicago Tribune.
Special teams coordinator Richard Hightower is backing that message. He will continue to work with Walker and believes he can be an asset in the unit. Furthermore, he saw clear remorse from the receiver in the locker room, via CHGO.
“With a player like Jahdae, when I got to the locker room, he was damn near in tears,” Hightower said. “He was very remorseful. He plays with a tremendous amount of passion and I’m not going to coach the passion out of him. That’s not in his personality, he does not want to hurt the team”
Now in his second year with the franchise, Walker has carved out a pivotal role, even if he doesn’t always show up in the box score. The receiver is always ready to block and contribute on special teams.
Chicago will just want him to control his emotions a bit better moving forward. Playing with fire is requested, if not required from everyone on the Bears. But not when it costs your team 15 yards and your services for the remainder of the game.
