One feature of the Bears new stadium proposal will be extremely interesting to Montez Sweat.
Bears star pass rusher Montez Sweat is on board for one important aspect of the team’s new stadium plans, no matter where the stadium ends up.
On a recent episode of former Rams and Eagles great Chris Long’s podcast, “Green Light with Chris Long” (Yote House Media), Sweat declared his fondness for playing under domes. “I’m going to be honest; I like playing inside,” Sweat stated on the show.
“I’m not opposed to playing outside. I’ve been playing football since I was a young dude, so that’s where it started. But do I feel that the league should build a bunch of domes and put grass in them? Yes.”
For the most part, Sweat believes that teams should grow actual grass and install it inside, like the Arizona Cardinals do. But Sweat acknowledged his favorite playing surface is the artificial turf inside Dallas’ AT&T Stadium. “On that turf, I felt like a track star.”
Good news, Sweat! The Bears have indicated numerous times that their next stadium will have an enclosed roof. So no matter if the Bears stay on the lakefront or move to the suburbs, he’ll get to attack rival quarterbacks in beautiful climate-controlled settings.
