Austin Booker Admits Bears Coaches Have Been Ruthless With Him

The Chicago Bears pulled a big surprise last month when they traded back into the 2024 draft for a 5th round pick from Buffalo. With it they selected Kansas edge rusher Austin Booker, adding some much-needed depth and upside to their defensive line. The fact he draws comparisons to Maxx Crosby is certainly noteworthy. He only started one season in college but had eight sacks and 12 tackles for a loss. For somebody with his inexperience, he showed a natural feel for rushing the quarterback that is hard to ignore.
