Center Cody Whitehair has struggled through a sophomore slump, and it’s unlikely that playing three different positions along the interior of the offensive line has helped matters. His 61.9 grade at Pro Football Focus ranks him 19th among 36 qualifying centers and represents a significant drop-off from his 85.9 grade as a rookie. But Whitehair turned back the clock with his performance last Sunday, earning an 89.3 grade and a spot on PFF’s Team of the Week.
The Bears ran for 222 yards, with PFF noting that 35.6 percent of the yards came from either side of Whitehair’s point of attack. Whitehair didn’t allow a quarterback pressure either, which might be a sign he is back on the right track.
We had a decent look at Desmond King, who came up with that pick-6 for the Chargers. He was on the Senior Bowl North Team coached by John Fox.
King went in the 5th round (151st overall) … 4 picks after #DaBears chose OL Jordan Morgan.
