Remarks: The Chicago Bears strangely claim the Lions’ postseason award….
In a surprising turn of events, the Chicago Bears have recently claimed partial credit for a postseason award that was ultimately won by a member of the Detroit Lions. The confusion stems from the fact that the Lions’ wide receiver, Amon-Ra St. Brown, received a prestigious award for his exceptional performance this past season, yet Chicago’s front office feels their involvement is worth noting due to the team’s role in drafting the player.
St. Brown, who has become one of the brightest stars in Detroit’s offense, was selected by the Lions in the fourth round of the 2021 NFL Draft. However, the Chicago Bears, who were picking just a few slots ahead of the Lions, were reportedly the team that initially showed interest in the wide receiver before ultimately passing on him. In a bizarre twist, some members of the Bears’ organization have taken to social media, suggesting that St. Brown’s impressive rise to prominence wouldn’t have been possible without their early interest in him.
This somewhat strange take has raised eyebrows across the league, with many questioning the validity of such claims. Experts point out that Chicago never pulled the trigger on drafting St. Brown, which means they ultimately had no direct role in his success. Some are even calling the Bears’ comments a case of revisionist history, where they’re attempting to attach themselves to St. Brown’s accolades without the necessary contributions.
As for the Lions, they have remained silent about the bizarre situation, focusing instead on St. Brown’s accolades and the growing success of their offense. It’s clear that, for now, the player’s accomplishments are his own, with or without the indirect influence of the Chicago Bears.
