The Chicago Bears drafted defensive tackles Gervon Dexter and Zacch Pickens on Day 2 of the 2023 NFL draft, with the hope that they’ll develop into long-term starters. Safe to say, Dexter and Pickens will be linked as their NFL careers get underway.
But before Dexter and Pickens became teammates in Chicago, they were flying together to visit teams, so they got to know each other during the pre-draft process. In fact, Pickens always had an inkling that they’d wind up as teammates at the NFL level.
