Jeffery Simmons shares his opinion on Bears fans

Jeffery Simmons has only played two games for the Chicago Bears. However, he has already made his mark, energizing the defense and becoming a game changer. The veteran defensive tackle recently shared his thoughts about his new team’s fans.

He is coming off another solid performance. Simmons recorded four total tackles, including three solo efforts, along with one sack, one tackle for loss and one pass deflection. The 29-year-old’s production was key in Chicago’s 27-24 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Soldier Field.

Simmons arrived with the Bears via a trade from the Tennessee Titans on Oct. 29. Chicago sent a 2027 and 2028 first-round selections and a 2027 fourth rounder. The Mississippi State product is a first-team All Pro selection last year and is a four-time Pro Bowler.

Bears DT Jeffery Simmons praises Chicago fans

Simmons has already felt the love of Chicago fans when he made his home debut in Week 9. There has been a lot of changes since he was dealt, but the team’s supporters have made it easier for him.

“These last couple days, these last two weeks, (have been) unbelievable,” Simmons said. The love I have, they have been showing you on my head. I’m sure everyone said that the fans of Chicago, they breed football. And to pack out the stadium, even Monday night in Seattle, I got chills to hear how many fans we had in Seattle.

“Then you come back home, another primetime game Sunday night in Chicago, that was like unreal. We’re not a ton of for the first time. So it definitely felt like home and I’m looking forward to spending the rest of my career there, whenever that may be.”

Jeffrey Simmons on the Trade Process:

“I asked Ben, ‘What’s the plan? Am I good to go Monday night?’ And he’s like, ‘Oh yeah, you playing.’ The fans of Chicago, they breathe football. To pack out the stadium, even on Monday night in Seattle, got chills. Running out that tunnel for the first time was unreal. It’s definitely feeling like home, and I’m looking forward to hopefully ending my career there.”

Last Two Weeks have been Crazy
