This week, Chiefs Wire's Ed Easton Jr. spoke with Pro Football Hall of Famer and Chicago Bears legend Brian Urlacher.
In his interview with Easton Jr., Urlacher discusses his participation in this year's American Century Championship, which will take place July 10-12 at Edgewood Tahoe and air on NBC and Peacock. He discussed that Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Nick Bolton deserves more respect as one of the best at his position in the league.
"They're (MLB players) always so much better than we (NFL players) are (at the American Century Championship). I mean, we have Tony Romo, Marshall Faulk, who is really good for us, but they have Derek Lowe and Mark Mulder, who are just as good," said Urlacher. "They have so many good players; it's frustrating Kevin Millar is also good; they're just stacked with talent."
Urlacher is considered one of the greatest linebackers to play the game, earning numerous accolades throughout his career. He praises several of today's stars, including Chiefs linebacker Nick Bolton.
"Man, that dude (Nick Bolton) gets it. He's very overlooked, but Fred Warner is great, but Bolton, maybe just because all the players on that team, he doesn't get the (same) respect," said Urlacher, "Chris Jones up front, and George Karlaftis, those guys up front, and they had the secondary guys, they were good. Nick Bolton does not get a lot of national exposure, and he should, because he makes a lot of plays."
