All right, boys, Friday night, Monday night game this week.

So, you know, we got to get the Millers going Saturday.

Friday night, what do you guys got playing?

All weekend long, we got a big Notre Dame game. I'm thinking about going. NC State. Oh, nice. There you go. So have some rolling. There you go. Playing golf Sunday. I will be drinking Miller light there. No doubt about it. Because I think it's crazy. We keep saying this nice weather it's the last time it's the last time

I don't know when it's going to be bad I don't see any end in sight hopefully never actually

yeah right we just take this right into spring yeah which you know it just it just changes

bonfire bonfire season and you get your I want I want some cold weather Miller lights where you leave them outside in the back deck and you're grilling and you just grab one of those Miller lights as you're out there. That's, I love that feeling. So I hope that this is the last weekend. I hope golf should not be being played anymore right now. Let's just get to it. Miller Lite, the official beer partner of our Chicago Bears, go to Millerlight.com slash stretch to find delivery options near you, or you can pick up some Miller Light pretty much

anywhere that they sell beer.

All right, welcome to the Stretch interview episode.

We are joined by Bear Safety, Kevin Byard, the two-pick man coming out of, coming out of Vegas. Kevin, how are you, man? Thanks for doing this. No, I'm doing well, man. Had a good reset week with the family. I'm just getting away for a little bit. But, man, I'm super excited to get back into this thing. So how was the week five by? Like coming in, as fans at least, we were like, oh, we hate this. Was it better than you thought? Give us everything about the week five by? No, honestly, it's, I mean, it's kind of weird. It's the earliest buy we've ever had. Personally, I didn't really, I don't like the timing of it. And I think it's too early for me like I'm a big routine guy so I got a routine going and to kind of stop it this early I don't know which is kind of weird you always want that sweet spot week nine you know week eight by week but I mean at the end of day you can't really complain where it is so now like said, just ready to get back to it and get on this long 13-week stretch until we get to the playoffs. Is there any part of you that, in hindsight, it's like, well, we got an extra week for Kyler Gordon and some of these guys who were banged up to get back in on the field with you? Yeah, I guess in hindsight, that is, you know, there's another way to look at it because I think it's coming at a good time

because, like you said, we'll get him back, T.J. Edwards back. Hopefully we get some other guys back as well. Maybe Austin Booker. I'm not sure what his rehab process looks like right now. But we're going to need those guys, especially on defense. We need some assistance on some different things. So, yeah, I mean,

that's another way to look at it for sure. For sure. Definitely need the boys back. But going to the

intro talking about the two turnovers you made against the Raiders, was there something Gino was

doing that you were prepared for to make those turnovers? Or what were you looking for there? What

happened? No, I mean me a lot of it was

just film study uh it wasn't necessarily just gno it's more about the schematics of like what they

like to do on third down third and long third and medium we knew a lot of those in breaking routes
