Five Chicago Bears to watch in Preseason Week 2: Defense

Jonathan Bullard and Roy Robertson-Harris

Every single week I am going to put these two together as players to watch. The fact of the matter is that they are the main attraction on the defensive line. We know that Akiem Hicks and Eddie Goldman will see the field the most. We know John Jenkins is the back up at the nose, and that Bilal Nichols has taken strides to make the roster as a depth rookie.

However, there is a real question about where Bullard and Robertson-Harris stand in comparison with the pecking order. Both have had good camps, but it has provided neither the chance to separate.

Hicks and Goldman will not play long in this one. We will get yet another long look at Bullard and Robertson-Harris next to each other for at least a full quarter of snaps. Who takes the lead in round three? Does Bullard continue to start? Are there specific situations in which the Chicago Bears can use one over the other? We will continue to learn over the next two games.
