Happy Friday! The final Friday in which we don't have a Bears game to preview (save for the bye week) for the remainder of the year, I might add. We're going to enjoy the Labor Day weekend around here before we get into the Carolina preview in earnest next week (we've got some fun things planned, including my annual season expectations and predictions!). Until then, here are some relevant news and notes before we get into the weekend.
