Tremaine Edmunds’ size will be the first thing Chicago Bears fans notice when they attend training camp practices. The middle linebacker’s 6-foot-5, 250-pound physique looming in the center of the defense is eye-catching.
Bears linebacker Tremaine Edmunds speaks with the media at Halas Hall on March 16, 2023, in Lake Forest.
Babich also knows Edmunds after coaching him for four of his five seasons in Buffalo, two in which Edmunds made the Pro Bowl. Babich believes Edmunds’ combination of potential, experience, age and physical and mental gifts make him uniquely qualified to have an impact on the Bears. Their father, Ferrell, was a 6-foot-6, 254-pound tight end for seven years with the Miami Dolphins and Seattle Seahawks and a two-time Pro Bowl selection. Their mother, the former Felecia “Cookie” Veal, was a Missouri Valley Conference champion at Southern Illinois in the indoor and outdoor hurdles.Along with passing along their athletic genes, the couple set high standards and fostered a competitive environment for their sons.
Despite their differences, Tremaine said he had an advantage watching how his brothers handled themselves on their paths to the NFL. And he never felt pressure being part of such a high-achieving family.“Because I was always destined to get to a certain level and I wasn’t going to take no for an answer,” Tremaine said. “That was just my mindset. It gives you a little bit more edge.”
“You heard the Todd Marinovich stories where the dads were psychos, where they couldn’t drink this or eat that,” Foster added, referring to the former USC and Raiders quarterback. “I didn’t see that with that family. They were very caring.”On a kickoff against Ohio State in the second quarter of Virginia Tech’s 2015 opener, Terrell, Trey and Tremaine lined up in a straight line a few yards apart, then turned and charged forward.
Tremaine played multiple positions in high school — linebacker and tight end mostly — but he wanted to play defense at Virginia Tech, and Foster promised to make that happen.
