"The day you think you've figured it all out, it's down from there."

Adds, "My body is good, my body is strong."

Grady Jarrett on what he brings to the Chicago Bears:

"I want to share my experience and my hunger for greatness."

Ben Johnson on how the Bears' new-look offensive line adds to the running game:

"The intelligence factor is a major portion of it... If we get really good at a particular type of block, that's what we'll feature."

"We know the type of men they are, and we're really confident they're going to enhance our team and our locker room."
