Chicago Bears defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons has revealed the heartwarming method he uses to ensure his 3-year-old daughter can spot him during games. Simmons, who was acquired from the Tennessee Titans in a trade on October 29, shared the adorable detail in a recent interview.
The veteran lineman explained that he wears a distinctive accessory or makes a specific gesture that helps his young daughter identify him on the field among dozens of helmeted players. The gesture has become a family tradition since his arrival in Chicago.
Simmons joined the Bears after five seasons with the Titans, where he earned two Pro Bowl selections. The trade brought the 26-year-old defensive star to a Bears defense looking to strengthen its interior pass rush.
