I could only imagine how impacting it is to lose a parent at such a young age, I shed tears in this video, Jenkins will do great for his mother and his family! Bear Down!
@@vercingetorixarverni6343 Ooooo I'm as big a bears fan as they come, but that's a bit bias, I'd say. Best QB and best tackle? I absolutely loved both of them coming out, but that's a bit much.
As someone who lost a parent a few years older than Teven, I just want to say that I'm sure your mum threw her own draft night party in heaven and was dancing to celebrate you
@@tyjohnson9974 they haven’t and as Bears fans we are rightfully apprehensive because we’ve had years of disappointments. However, there is a correlation between success in college and the NFL. If you dominate in college and you continue to work hard and don’t lose focus 9 times out of 10 you will eventually dominate on the next level. We have historically drafted on “potential” especially at QB and potential ain’t shit! Fields has dominated on every level he’s played not just HS, but college as well so I think he will figure out this NFL thing. Same with Jenkins. This kid pancaked some of the top DE’s in college. That will translate. Just my humble opinion.
@@dedown97 "if you dominate in college and continue to work hard and stay focused 9 times out of 10 you will dominate in the nfl" There is not even one ounce of truth to that.
I agree!! I know them personally. I was/am his Mom's BFF. Friends for 20 yrs b4 she passed. I'm pretty close to his Mom's side. 35 yrs of friendship with them. & I went to school with his Dad. Hes def a good guy. I don't even have words to express how proud I am of Teven and his brother. It feels surreal that they are young men and not babies anymore. I've watched this video about 20 times. So many memories....
I’ve been saying that this whole time. Nagy has never had a losing season in 3 years... I understand his playcalling wasn’t the best last year, but I hope he learns from it.
Who ever disliked this video of this guy opening his heart to the world and showing himself clearly dont understand football or Chicago! We about family and pride! And this guy got that shit and owns it! Like the rest of us! Bear down! Let's go! I see this guy taking heads and numbers! 🐻⬇️🏈
As a Bears fan who moved to Kansas at a young age, I’m rooting for Teven even more! Best wishes to a fellow Kansan and soon to be best Bears OL man 🐻⬇️
Look at my uncle Lynn the family camera man!! Go lil cousin. Bird will be Soo proud of you.He looks just like my fav cousin, his mom her reincarnation..
🐻⬇️Teven Fantastic footwork and attitude. Hopefully he can improve our whole line. Can’t wait for the season to begin. Your family and fans are behind you.
Awesome Dad! Take notes parents get your children into after school programs. Don't give them time to get into trouble or get overweight America could actually start to earn it's mystique if more parents did this and he was a single father so bravo sir you did an excellent job and you are an inspiration.
What a wonderful story of a gifted young man growing up always remembering his dear mom that sadly lost her battle to cancer, when Teven was very young. Also, seeing Teven receive terrific support from all his family members throughout Teven's early football days in Topeka, KS to OK ST and finally making it to the NFL with the Monsters of the Midway. Bear Down!!!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THESE new life stories of our rookies! Gives you a different perspective of them on the personal side that will have you rooting for them as individuals as well
I hope this kid continues that drive & motivation and becomes an all pro for da Bears for many yrs. This was a very touching segment. Really moved me. Definitely in this kid & his amazing families corner !
Met him this past weekend, and he definitely seems like a humble young man. Loved watching this story. Rooting for him and Fields! Welcome to Chicago gentlemen! Let’s do big things this season 🙌🏽 #beardown🏈
I see people on various chat boards say theyre weary of Jenkins at LT and I shake my head. I also hear so called experts say he isnt a good athlete. What player are these people watching? Those who know what to look for in an OT already know Jenkins will NAIL IT at LT. Im talking brains, bend technique and his FOOTWORK. Jenkins footwork and technique are as good as IT GETS. You dont waste that talent and brutality at RT. Thank your lucky stars that 5 QBS were taken in round 1 to cause players like Jenkins to fall. If your on the fence about Jenkins at LT just go watch tape of his footwork. Once you see that footwork, thats when you know. To me Jenkins is the offensive line version of a young Aaron Donald type of talent coming out of the draft. If one ACTUALLY LOOKS at the player instead of listening to the media morons going by their imaginations, you find that the talent with Jenkins is so broad it almost slaps you in the face. Youll find that media experts often dont even look at the players they talk about & rely on commonly phrased generalizations to get by. Ive always stuck out for Pace and felt that people have been a little hard on Pace, but even Im awestruck on how Pace was basically allowed to get away with the utter highway robbery he pulled when he stole FIELDS, JENKINS AND BOROM right in front of the NFL world. The best part is knowing that half of the NFL still isnt aware of the highway robbery that occurred on draft day. Id have Jenkins and Borom on the outside with my 3 best vets on the interior and call lots of run plays with Fields under center. Do that and by midseason the Bears will have as good of an offensive foundation as you can get for the next decade if they play their cards right. You mark my words, GMS WILL regret the day they passed on Jenkins, Borom & Fields!
I hope Borom pans out too…unbelievable draft this year for us, couldn’t agree more. Also Khalil Herbert might be someone to look out for in upcoming years 👀
His measurables placed him very high of all OL in the draft. People just don't bother to look. Same with Fields. So happy CHI finally benefited from other teams' ignorance & media blowhards.
Borum is no joke either. Might take a little longer to be ready, but he's also mean, down to earth, and smart. Looking FW to his coming of age, hopefully sooner than later.
35 year bearsfan and I was praying the bears would DRAFT this young man!Develop into the BEST LT ever for yourself and DA BEARS! Good luck and nothing but BEST WISHES FOR YA
@@josepharcher3265....We drafted him to be our LT, but he played RT most of his career and was dominant. He has talent to learn, but we will see how fast he can develop at his new position. I'm ready! ✊🏽🐻⬇️
Happy for him, happy he is in Chicago moved to Arkansas 5 yrs ago and only see 3 games a year Sun and Mon. night games and the playoff game. I think we will see more playoff games this year. Bear down from Hot Springs Ar.
Welcome to Chicago, We are happy to have you. Keep that fire, Im so excited seeing you on my favorite team after watching your plays before the draft. I never thought youd land in Chicago. BEAR DOWN.
Really like this kid. Was debating of getting his Jersey instead of going Fields. But my Wife got me a Fields Jersey for Fathers day. I'm really rooting for this kid.
I’m so happy Teven is on our team. All the adversity hes been through made him who he is today. His dad is a hero and I can’t wait for him to tear it up in the NFL.
What a likable guy, humble, but dedicated. Jenkins, you’re a great person it looks like, and can’t wait to see you on the field in the Bears jersey. Lord knows our locker room has had some issues in the past but grabbing guys like this gives me hope for the future culture of Bears Football 🏈
I did not know this Tevin Go Get Em fam YOU will stand out I can just tell ... I know in the world of sports we are supposed to tell WHY you will shine .. we all have a driving force it's just that it's unfortunate that a high percentage don't tap into that force embrace that force ... You already there Tev. We will, have this conversation again after we win the Superbowl yeah this yr .. BearDown 76 This for Mom R.I.H.
I'm definitely looking forward to watching him do his thing I believe he will make a significant impact for our team welcome to Chicago big dog bear dwn
I remember Rashied Davis had that "Xplosion" celebration every time he scored. Since he called Teven Jenkins name in the draft, he should borrow that celebration every time he gets a pancake.
These are the stories we need to hear more about. I have never bought a linemans jersey before cuz we had payton and too many great defensive players, im getting a jenkins jersey!!!
I lost my Mother at 12 I wish him nothing but success and I pray that he can help other children learn about dealing with grief and pursuing your goals in life. 🐻⬇️
I am delighted this young man got drafted by my team, will be cheering for him and hope he can dominate. Have been hoping they would draft at least 2 good Oline players after losing players like Kyle Long that you don't just "replace" was hoping for hard working young guys with a ton of potential and great attitude. . Think they defiantly found one of those in Mr.Jenkins.
With no doubts! How in the hell can you thumbs down this incredible story! Wishing nothing but the best for this young man regardless of the team that he plays for.
Teven's mom would be so proud of him. What a kind, compassionate family he comes from. Welcome to the Bears!
Yes she would. She's smiling real hard up there I know.
Man, after all that adversity, I'm really rooting for this kid!
I could only imagine how impacting it is to lose a parent at such a young age, I shed tears in this video, Jenkins will do great for his mother and his family! Bear Down!
Facts, it happened to my best friend a week before the start of 8th grade, idk how he’s ok
Lost mom in 7th grade and paps after boot camp. It sucks but it does push you
Never thought Teven's story would make me tear up this morning. 🐻⬇️
Teven was my preferred "consolation prize" if we couldnt get a qb at 20. the fact that not only did we get Teven but also fields is nuts
Literally our best draft of my life lol. I couldn't believe it
That's exactly how I felt. I was driving with my family had sirius nfl radio on went crazy when we got him.
Pace killed it in the draft 🐻👇🏻💕
You know this how?
@@AdamB34 best qb, best tackle plus a lockdown corner, and rb that never should have dropped to the sixth rounds. I'd say that's killing it 🤷♂️
@@AdamB34 Are you a Packer fan?
@@vercingetorixarverni6343 Ooooo I'm as big a bears fan as they come, but that's a bit bias, I'd say. Best QB and best tackle? I absolutely loved both of them coming out, but that's a bit much.
We shall see if he killed it with talent. He gets an A+ when it comes to drafting character.
Losing a parent at such a young age is heartbreaking but to see both sides of his family pull up to help raise him and his brother is amazing.
This has to be one of my favorite "meet the rookies "got me over here tearing up and stuff🥲
I can't wait to see this kid suit up and play! I've got such a good feeling about this kid! 🐻⬇️
A Genuine, Monster of the Midway, Come-ith!
As a Raider fan i wanted him. He plays with alot of heart. Yall got a good one and what a story. RIP mama Jenkins 🙏
As a native of Topeka, KS and life long bears fan I hope him the best and know he will make his family and the Bears family proud.
Imma just say first THANK YOU NAGY AND PACE FOR FIXING THE TEAM
Always going to root for Kansas kids, hope this man balls out in Chicago 🙏🏽
As someone who lost a parent a few years older than Teven, I just want to say that I'm sure your mum threw her own draft night party in heaven and was dancing to celebrate you
Got something in my eye
The things that happen to him, and his support group made him a very amazing person! Go Teven! Bear Down!
How do you not instantly love this guy
5:55 Love it!
Welcome to the Chicago Bears. You can't help but root for this young man.
Fields and this guy? What a draft, one of the best just like Sayers and Butkus!
They haven’t played a snap yet

Huge fan of tevin, gonna be one of my favorite bears players for sure💯 rip to his beautiful mom🙏🏾 you’re gonna make her proud🌹
Wow, his mom was a light. ♥️ He’s honestly my favorite pick in this draft.
Awesome! Does it for his mom, gotta love it
Man... I started tearing up. Lets go Teven! You have a whole city supporting you now.
Kick some ass Jenkins Chicago is rooting for you!!!
For all who are saying pace did well yes he did but you gotta give some credit to Nagy he’s a good head coach to have there helping out
I’ve been saying that this whole time. Nagy has never had a losing season in 3 years... I understand his playcalling wasn’t the best last year, but I hope he learns from it.
@@beardown4ever368 it wasn’t even terrible too some of it was great but trubiksi doesn’t make the right throws or reads it’s unfortunate

Rest in Peace Mama Jenkins!!

Best pick for a bears offensive tackle since Jimbo Covert. Let's see if he can set the edge like big Jim did for 10yrs. I like his chances. Go Bears.
