Have the kind of night the Bears did against the Patriots on Monday, and you’d be riding high, enjoying yourself to the fullest. After lofty comments he made about New England last week, Chicago defensive tackle Justin Jones might be the happiest of any Bears player right now.
You see, in the lead-up to their Monday night matchup, Jones said he would “check the balls” to ensure they were properly inflated before the Bears and Patriots actually squared off. According to the veteran, the ghosts of “Deflategate’s” past never left.
