Nate Davis only played 18 snaps last Sunday for the Chicago Bears. Veteran Ryan Bates played 28. It was a confusing situation because there were no indications Davis was hurt. Head coach Matt Eberflus said the decision was part of a rotation plan. However, not everybody is buying that. It felt much more like the team choosing to bench Davis. The unknown reason was what for?
Team insider Adam Hoge of CHGO did some digging and believes the decision stemmed from one play in the first half.
