With Charles Tillman done for the season with a torn triceps, the Bears will be leaning more heavily on first-round cornerback Kyle Fuller over the rest of the season.
Fuller can’t hope to have the same kind of savvy that Tillman has acquired over a dozen years in the Chicago secondary, but the veteran says that he plans to help Fuller as much as he can this year in a mentoring role. He also says that the rookie, who had two interceptions as the Bears came back to beat the 49ers in Week Two, brings the right raw materials.
“I just see greatness. He had a hell of game, great coming out party. If anybody was happy for him, I was,” Tillman said, via the Chicago Tribune. “I think, too, though, we have a good defense. And my role right now is to help our defense out, not just Kyle Fuller. I think my overall role is to help out our team. That’s the point I want to really get across.”
Tillman says he’s ready to do anything to help the Bears in 2014, but he’s not ready to make any calls about returning to join Fuller in the secondary next season, saying that he’s “thinking about fish tacos right now.”
And now we’re thinking about fish tacos too.
