The Chicago Bears social media team was busy sharing tweets of players in their team colors on Monday. One of the Bears’ biggest superstars, safety Eddie Jackson, is sporting a new number in 2021 and we got our first look in this (sort of) hype video:

Jackson is taking advantage of the new jersey number rule in 2021 that allows a wider range of number options for safeties. He’s switching back to his college number — ‘4’ — from his trademark 39.
It’s an obvious upgrade.
