Bears OT Darnell Wright 'crushed' conditioning test after doing wrong workouts
Earlier this week, Bears general manager Ryan Poles commended rookie right tackle Darnell Wright for crushing his conditioning workout when he reported for training camp. On Friday, Wright -- the No. 10 overall pick in April's NFL draft -- had to admit he made a mistake. For the 40 days that players were away from the team facility in Lake Forest, Wright was accidentally doing the wide receiver conditioning drills.
"I thought we had like more ," Wright said."I was looking at the wide receivers' running portion of the workout, so I was doing theirs." After Wright's conditioning test, Poles texted Wright a GIF of the rapper Drake celebrating. Little did the GM know his top draft pick had been studying for the wrong test. Wright said the wide receivers workouts included longer sprints than what the linemen do.
All that running has helped Wright drop 16 pounds, he said. So his 335-pound listing on the roster is probably more like 320 now. His body fat is also down. His first professional contract -- four years, $21 million -- helped him hire a personal chef to take care of his meals at home.
