Eternally optimistic, gracious, humble, kind, and a pro, Jeff Dickerson was loved by everyone. Always smiling, always hopeful. He helped me through some tough times, and I am saddened about our loss. Condolences to his son Parker and his family. Much love JD. @DickersonESPN

- NFC North Champs! @ChicagoBears. Long time coming. Thrilled for #Bears nation. Rewarded for your patience with a return to the playoffs. Now the fun really begins. “Happy, not satisfied” per Matt Nagy. @WBBMNewsradio
- #Bears QB Mitch Trubisky throwing support for an extension for Allen Robinson. "Allen's just so reliable, you go to him in any situation. When he's not open, he's still open. That's my guy." @WBBMNewsradio
- #Bears HC Nagy on Justin Fields: "His mechanics were really good. I thought he looked super calm. The ball did not touch the ground very much." @WBBMNewsradio
- Best to @D_Hest23 after a record-setting career! Your instincts, explosion, speed, and flare made you one of a kind! A @ChicagoBears legend! A revolutionary game changer. Simply the best, most dynamic returner. Canton should be calling. Thanks for the "ridiculous" memories.
- Prayers and blessings to the entire McCaskey family, the Bears family, and all who experienced the rare love, kindness, compassion, selflessness, and charity of this wonderful heart-warming person. Every encounter came with a smile, a gift to be cherished forever.

- I honestly can NOT wait to say "down he goes, Mack with the sack." His long arm move and leverage bend combined with his power just a joy to watch. @FiftyDeuce @ChicagoBearsNo one man should have all that power!
