Ben Johnson Praises Team Effort Behind Bears' 97-Yard Touchdown
The Chicago Bears showcased an impressive start in their preseason finale against the Tennessee Titans, scoring a 97-yard touchdown on the opening play. Rookie wide receiver Zavion Thomas executed a double-move, caught a pass, and sprinted down the field for the score, marking his first offensive snap with the team.
Head coach Ben Johnson noted that while Thomas's performance was remarkable, his greatest admiration was for the overall team effort that made the play possible. He emphasized the importance of running back Roschon Johnson's blocking and quarterback Tyson Bagent's trust in the protection, which allowed the play to unfold successfully.
Despite the highlight moment, Johnson acknowledged that Thomas still has room for growth, especially after a fumble during the game. He praised Thomas's potential and the coaching support he receives, indicating that while the rookie has made a strong start, he must continue to develop his skills and understanding of the game.
