Interesting tone shift... I don't know the context here, but it seems he volunteered that he’d be ok either way.
- Is that from insider info that there may be a change?
- From just outside realization that there might be?
- Or maybe it’s totally meaningless?
It feels telling though that this is the first time anyone has clarified this position (they'd be ok with whatever happens at QB) and it’s coming from Justin’s No. 1 target. I do have a feeling Poles and DJ talked more. Poles probably said “I’d like your feedback and know that I’ll consider it. Your opinion is very important to me in this process, but also know that I will be the one that ultimately needs to make this decision based on all input. It’s going to be a hard decision and there will be people that disagree either way. I need you to know I’m doing what I believe is best for the Chicago Bears and ask that you support me internally and externally as a leader of this team.” But as my last bullet states, it can be absolutely nothing and I acknowledge that.
